Einart Sirel remembers a Prangli childhood and the boys who sailed to Finland in 1943
Einart Sirel grew up on the island of Prangli. In this 1992 interview, recorded at his home in Kivimäe, he tells Hubert Veldermann about his childhood on the island and about July 1943, when a group of Prangli boys crossed the Gulf of Finland, as many young Estonian men did during the German occupation, and about his own service in the Finnish navy. He also speaks about his family, his house and his love of hunting. The programme ends with the song 'Mu kodu' by Uno Naissoo, sung by Jaak Joala.

Einart Sirel kasvas üles Prangli saarel. Selles 1992. aasta intervjuus, mis salvestati tema kodus Kivimäel, räägib ta Hubert Veldermannile lapsepõlvest saarel ja 1943. aasta juulist, mil grupp Prangli poisse sõitis üle Soome lahe, nagu tegid Saksa okupatsiooni ajal paljud Eesti noormehed, ning oma teenistusest Soome mereväes. Juttu tuleb ka perest, kodust ja jahikirest. Saade lõpeb Uno Naissoo lauluga "Mu kodu" Jaak Joala esituses.
