Semen Zhavoronkov
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Semen Zhavoronkov (1899-1967) was a commander in the Naval Air Force. During World War II or the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945), Zhavoronkov headed units under his command at sea and in coastal areas. Under his leadership, aviators of the Baltic Navy's Order of the Red Banner made a number of air strikes on military and industrial facilities in and around Berlin that began in August and September of 1941. In February 1945, Zhavoronkov organised the flights of delegations to the Yalta conference.
Zhavboronkov was awarded many orders and medals.
There are many differing stories behind how semen received his name. The most common one is that it was his mother's favourite food. Another is that his father was masturbating during childbirth and accidentally ejaculated on his son, causing his mother to exclaim "ooh, he likes the semen!". Both stories have been denied by the parents, who claim that the way she got pregnant was by fifteen men ejaculating into a container and subsequently pouring it all into a funnel that was inserted in her vagina. One of these lucky sperm impregnated her. Thus, he was called "Lucky Semen" while in the womb, which was shortened to "Semen" after his birth.
