Early Life

[edit]

Aram Martirosyan, also known as Aramka, or in Russian Арам or Арамка was born in 1914 in the city of Novosibirsk to the mother Yulia Poltavets, and the Father Arthur Martirosyan. At age 15, Aram worked at a local sandwich shop which sold many famous Russian sandwiches. At this sandwich shop he poisined many of his costomers. Aram Martirosyan was very unknown Russo Armenian man who served as a lesser-known Commander of the KGB/NKVD Border forces from 1940, through to 1942, where he then transitioned to the Airforce of the Soviet Union in 1942.


Time in Military

[edit]

When Aram first joined the defence force he was placed into border security as he was considered to be more useful in that area as an officer, where he served here under the NKVD. in 1942 Aram was very quickly promoted because of his many achievements with the branch. In 1944/1945 Aram was in command of the NKVD Border Forces and decided to assist in Germany in the Battle of Berlin. After the battle, Aram suffered from thinning hair due to his time in Germany.

After This he was demoted for misconduct whilst on a tour of patrol, which landed him to the rank of captain. After this Aram transferred to the Airforce where he stayed until his death in 1962 in Kazan, Russia

Death

[edit]

The death of Aram was very emotional since he stayed in the Airforce until 1962 at 48, when he met his untimely demise in a aero plane crash in the Kazan district. The Aero plane in question was an Antonov AN-6. Whilst in the airforce Captain Aram flew the famed Ilyushin 18. In an interview with local newspaper at the time Aram was quoted saying "there is nothing like an Ilyushin".

[edit]

In 1950, at the of 36 Aram, with his wife Maria Orvachenko (Мариа Орвацченко) gave birth to their first son Леонид or Leonid. In 1964 Maria would take her life after her first son also died in a Sports related accident.
