A paradoxical situation occurred in the life of cosmonaut Roman Romanenko.
The hero of Russia, who devoted his whole life to working in the space field, is kicked out of his office apartment.
Roman Romanenko is a colonel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, a Hero of Russia, a conqueror of space in the second generation: his father was also a famous cosmonaut.
In July 2008, Roman Romanenko was appointed to the main crew of the 20th expedition to the ISS as the commander of the Soyuz TMA 15 spacecraft, on which he went to the ISS on May 27, 2009.
He spent more than 187 days in orbit.
And here is a new watch — on December 19, he flew into space for the second time, but this time as the commander of the Soyuz TMA 07M spacecraft.
However, on the Land that he temporarily left, his family was touched by quite mundane problems.
The relatives of the cosmonaut were announced that they needed to leave their two room office apartment in Zvezdny Gorodok (Moscow region).
Roman lives there with his wife and two children — an 18 year old son and a 9 year old daughter.
The family of the Hero of Russia can lose their housing because of the military reform, according to which if you are an astronaut, then you are not a military man.
At the beginning of the year, Roman Romanenko and other cosmonauts were told that if they wanted to stay in the detachment of the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center (CPC), they needed to retire from military aviation.
It was difficult for the cosmonauts to understand such measures, since many, including Romanenko, gave their whole lives to military service.
However, reform is reform…
As a result, Romanenko chose the CPC.
It soon became clear that the matter would not end simply with a report on dismissal from the armed forces.
The fact is that when leaving the armed forces, cosmonauts are deprived of the right to live in a service apartment.
Of course, the law stipulates that the Ministry of Defense is obliged to provide other residential premises.
However, the existence of a law does not mean its implementation.
In 2011, we got in line for an apartment in Moscow.
But so far, no encouraging news.
Frankly, we are very tired of all this hassle.
After all, the service one needs to be released, and where can we go?
Bitterly, it's a shame…

At the same time, the Hero of Russia did not get his own housing for his entire life.
Roman Romanenko's family, in fact, has nowhere to live.
This is Russia, lol.

Trying to achieve justice, friends and supporters of the cosmonaut write letters to various authorities.
We appealed to the Main Military Prosecutor's Office with a request to check the Department of Housing Construction of the Ministry of Defense.
Because, according to our operational information, there is housing, but it is distributed among people close to the Minister of Defense, bypassing the existing queue.
Let's see what the chief military prosecutor will answer us.

Despite everything, friends and acquaintances believe that the situation will be resolved and Roman will have somewhere to fly.
Expert opinion
Yuri Tarlavin
chairman of the Primorsky Trade Union of Military Personnel, SmartNews
— In general, this position of the Ministry of Defense is nonsense.
Moreover, the mayor of Zvezdny is the hero cosmonaut Volkov.
The situation needs to be understood, because the dismissal simply cannot take place until the housing issue is resolved.
Without providing housing, the Ministry of Defense cannot dismiss an active serviceman.
The Agency is obliged to fulfill the terms of the contract and the Housing Code.
Romanenko is obliged to provide housing wherever he wishes, or to re register official housing in the Star City as permanent.
It is noteworthy that this is the second scandal related to the cosmonaut.
Before that, former Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov refused to sign Romanenko's submission to the title of Hero of Russia.
The official's motivation was surprisingly cynical: they say that space flights have long ceased to be a feat, but have become an everyday thing.
However, then Romanenko's supporters complained to Vladimir Putin, after which the military made a positive decision on awarding in a matter of days.

In fact, this is not the first scandal with the attitude of the authorities to representatives of unique professions.
There was a case, in the new Russia, there was no place for test pilots of the extra class in the list of pensions when registering pensions.
There were some factory and military testers, but such as Pugachev, Kvochur, Tolboev and many others, who often flew not even on airplanes, but literally on "stools with wings and an engine", who tested the very first, still raw models, teaching airplanes to fly and risking their lives every second, simply forgot.
Then they offered to equate it with factory testers…
The fact that many of them simply do not live to retire, the legislators did not care.
The cynicism of our officials is shocking: "And we didnot send you there", "I knew what I was doing" and "Write letters"…

There are a lot of such cases.
At first they are proud, and then – when a person has completed his term no one needs him.
In Russia, this is the order of things.

Aha, now we see how you need them...

Previously, under Stalin, it was possible to complain to Kalinin and in many cases they were sorted out (my grandfather was released two years later).
So now we need to make an authoritative service that would deal with these complaints, and not unsubscribes and races in a circle.
True, today's Russia's military and pros are no longer needed by anyone, such personalities as the Serdyukovs and Vasilievs are held in high esteem (they are entitled to apartments and no one is going to take them away)

Indeed, the man himself knew what he was going for.
He knew what country he lived in.
In fact, everyone knows this, but every time in such situations they pretend that this is a novelty for them.
So before you do anything, you need to think a thousand times — is it worth it?
Of course, this is wrong, of course, we must fight against it...
BUT!
The fact remains.
Gennady Loginov December 25, 2012, 16: 48
The level of development of cosmonautics is one of the criteria of a modern advanced power.
And if the state is not going to provide everything necessary for those people whose work ensures the existence and development of this industry, in the end, problems will arise for the state itself.
Gennady Bashlykov December 25, 2012, 18: 51
Well, probably everyone deserves what they deserve.
Romanenko probably also voted for our "favorite", who shouted "we won"into the microphone.
And who did he defeat!!!!.
Semyon Onoshkin December 25, 2012, 19: 55
People, are you crazy at all?!
Representatives of such professions risk their lives, and you write such heresy...
There are only a few like them.
If it wasnot for them, who knows, maybe we would still be living in caves now.

THE FIRST MAN IN SPACE...
Great day!!!
And I look LONGINGLY at the photo...
And it pops up in my head by chance,
Gagarin's wife, that in the time of ice
I went to the polyclinic... --she has a job there
And I met her at the checkpoint...
--
I ask for your pass!
--
Sorry, honey...
-- No, I donot...
--
They wonot discharge me in any way...
- I wonot get there myself...
I work here, honey..., there's a passport somewhere...
Look in my purse...
-- I canot find something
I took out my passport...
-- The CPC is not for passers by!
--
I opened it..., read it... read it again... and I was stunned...--
GAGARINA !!!
His wife !!!-- chills on the skin..--
My God!
Where did I get my filthy face !
After all, this is the one... whose name did he fly with !!!
Of course I missed it...
BUT...it was so insulting
And for our heroes...-- in general, for the country
Have they really done so little in their lives,
To wives... and their families were so humiliated by their country
I donot understand the rulers...
AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND !!!
