The Discredited Hero
Igor Gouzenko was a Russian who did a great deal of damage to communism and the USSR. Some may see him as a selfish man, who betrayed his country for money and personal freedom, but others may see him as a selfless man, who despite the severe consequences for him and his family, did what would ultimately benefit the whole world. My opinion is that he was a great, selfless man who sacrificed all he had for the freedoms we enjoy in democratic countries around the globe. Gouzenko's sacrifice also included the imprisonment of 11 people who had barely done anything wrong, but was unavoidable because the supporters of communism had to be stopped if they couldn't be converted.
Igor Gouzenko was born in Russia on January 13, 1919. He lived in Communist Russia under Stalin. He did very well in school and was accepted at the Moscow Architectural Institute. When WWII began he was lucky to not be sent to the front. Instead the NKVD chose him to become a cipher clerk.......
