On May 7, Lev Ivanov and Vozrozhdenniy arrived at the pass.
Potyazhenko was instructed by the command post to fly in and transport the corpses.
He was met by Ortyukov, who informed him that it was also necessary to bring a monument to the pass on the return flight, together with any materials needed for its mounting.
His commanding officers confirmed the mission of transportation of the bodies, but not that of the monument, so Potyazhenko refused.
Moreover, his commanding officers approved the transportation of the bodies only if they were placed in coffins, in accordance with the sanitary guidelines for transportation of corpses.

it is outrageous that myself, along with fourteen comrades, had carried the corpses to the helicopter in our arms, but the crew, despite my insistent requests, refused to take the requested onboard. As a communist, furious with the behavior of the crew, I want to inform the party city committee and the commander of the military district, Colonel-General Leliushenko, twice Hero of the Soviet Union. For you personally. Corpses are frozen in the state in which you saw them in. This concerns the open body parts. Detailed examination has demonstrated that they are in a frozen state. The forensic expert refused to perform a resection, saying that it was impossible to do. At your request, he will report to you in person about it.
