RT presents War Witness - a special project dedicated to the 65th anniversary of the Victory in the Second World War. World War II veterans recount their stories about the war - from how it began to how it ended. Field medical officer Ekaterina Demina started serving at the front when she was not even fifteen years old. She was rejected in the local conscription office but met soldiers who agreed to take her to the front as she had medical skills.
