When World War II began, Zinoviy Kolobanov already had serious military experience. For example, he fought in the Finnish War of 1939-1940, during which he escaped from a burning tank three times. In 1941, Kolobanov commanded a tank unit during the German advance toward Leningrad (now St. Petersburg).
