May 9 is the day of celebration of the national holiday: the Day of Victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. It is our sacred duty to preserve the memory of the feat of veterans who, owing to their bravery, courage, indefatigable industry and selflessness, ensured peace and freedom for new generations.
