A voice-over tells him that he died and was buried in a foreign country. A few years before that. Nineteen-year-old communications officer Alexei, while repairing a telephone cable, knocks out two German tanks from an anti-tank gun accidentally found on the battlefield. The command is going to present him to the Order, but Alexei asks to give him leave to see his mother and repair the roof of the house. After receiving six days off and buying a gift for his mother, Alexei sets off. His colleague Sergei Pavlov asks to pass the news and two pieces of soap to his wife. At the station, Alyosha meets a one-legged veteran Vasily, and decides to help him bring suitcases to the train. Vasily says that he does not want to return to his wife, ashamed of his disability. On the train, Alyosha talks to other veterans who do not believe that he, just a communicator, could have performed a feat. But upset by such distrust, he takes a piece of newspaper from the soldiers with his photo, just torn to shreds, and the soldiers are surprised to read an article about him. At the station, Vasily is met by his wife, who is happy for his return. Postage stamp of the USSR. 1965 Soviet cinema. A scene from the movie "The Ballad of the Soldier". When Alyosha tries to get into the freight car of the army supply train, he is stopped by the watchman Gavrilkin. The sentry passes him behind the stew jar. At one of the stops, the girl Shura gets into the car. Seeing Alyosha, she almost jumped off the moving train. Shura says that she is going to her fiancé-pilot. Finding her, Gavrilkin demands two more cans of stew from Alyosha. Then a lieutenant appears, who, learning of Skvortsov's feat, allows them to stay in the car and punishes the guard. At one of the stops Alyosha goes out for water, and the train leaves without him. He gets to the next station by a passing car, but still does not have time to catch the train. At the station, he meets Shura again, who decides to wait for him. They go to Pavlov's wife. It turns out that she lives with another man. Alyosha visits Pavlov's father in the hospital and gives him soap, telling about his son's courage and valor. The holiday is coming to an end, and Alyosha has to part with Shura. In farewell, she says that she made up about the groom and now loves him. Without really saying goodbye, Alyosha catches up with the moving train. Along the way, he regrets that he did not confess his love for Shura. Suddenly the train is bombed, and Alyosha witnesses the death of several passengers. On the way, Alyosha persuades the truck driver to take him to his native village to see his mother for a few minutes. Having met the neighbors and his mother, he promises to return from the war, and his mother - to wait for him. The voice-over says: "He could have become a wonderful citizen, he could have decorated the land with gardens, but he was and will forever remain in our memory as a soldier.
