My Grandfathers Life
My grand father Eduard Petrovich Altunov was born in 1922 on July 22 in Tbilisi capital of Georgia. His father was a teacher and then became a journalist in one of the main newspaper in Georgia.

My grandfather always dreamed to become a Pilate and because of that attended into flying academy in Moscow. In 1941 when war started my grandfather was one of the first who was sent to fight. He was sent to Rastov and then from there he was sent to Tigiran. He came back in 1946. As soon as he came back he continued the work of his father and became a journalist and worked in newspaper called �Tbilisi Times� as a redactor.

Unfortunately when I was born he wasn�t not alive but I hear a lot about him from my parents and their friends who new him. I know that during the World War II he was fighting bravely and only skill and god will, saved his life there. My grandfather was a very educated man and he had a lot of friend because he of his honesty and kindness to everybody. He also was a good musician and could play on many instruments but sadly I cant hear him playing. I will always remember my grandfather.
