Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin is an outstanding historical figure. It was he who glorified our country to the whole world, being the first to visit near-Earth orbit. This flight required great courage, since no one gave a 100% guarantee of its successful completion. Why does a simple Russian guy have so much heroism and sacrifice? Perhaps the spirit of courage was laid in it from birth.
Personal qualities brought up by parents
Mother and father of Yuri Gagarin were ordinary people. They worked honestly all their lives, raised children. It was they who, by personal example, brought up in their children a love for the motherland, hard work, a good attitude towards others.
When little Jura was supposed to begin school, the war began. His native Smolensk region was occupied by the Nazis. All residents eagerly awaited release. Soviet planes smashing the Germans left an indelible mark on every boy’s soul. Yura already knew who he wanted to become. As a child, Gagarin, like all the boys, dreamed of being a pilot. But this was only a tribute of thanks for the liberation of their native land.
Profession - Pilot
Yuri decided on a profession much later. What Gagarin wanted to become in his childhood, what profession to master, he himself did not really know. The dream of the sky seemed impossible. Behind this man is both a vocational school and an industrial technical school. Only studying in a technical school, he began to attend classes in the flying club. And, having made his first flight on a corn-truck, he realized that he could not live without heaven.
Remembering his old dream, who he wanted to become in childhood, Gagarin enters the Orenburg Flight School. After graduating with honors, like all previous educational institutions, he went to work in the Arctic.
After graduating from the Academy. Zhukovsky, Gagarin becomes a real specialist, with whom they consulted, whose opinion was respected. Having considerable experience in flying, he always tried to help his comrades, to support in difficult times.
Thanks to his iron character and invaluable experience, Gagarin became an astronaut. But even after a successful landing and gaining worldwide fame, he did not leave the flight business. He always remained what he wanted to become in childhood. Gagarin conducted tests of new models of aircraft, taking uncracked cars out of the most hopeless situations. Even the eldest, eminent pilots were amazed at his skill.
The best pilot of the country, the first cosmonaut of the Earth. This person is Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin. What did any seventies child want to become in childhood? Well, of course, an astronaut. Having set an example of extraordinary industriousness and heroism, Gagarin became an example for imitation of more than one generation of youth.
