Special Operation Veterans Meet with Sevastopol Youth

On the eve of Navy Day, participants of the special military operation who served in the navy met with young people at the Sevastopol «Boiling Point». The fighters told the children about naval traditions, participation in a special operation, patriotism and faith in victory.

Today, it is especially important for us here and now not only to tell about our lives, but also to help the children better understand today’s events, because in the huge information flows one can lose sight of the main landmarks. These are love for the Fatherland, family, friendship and mutual assistance.“- notes sailor of the separate coastal defense brigade of military unit 12676 Daniil Safarov.

A participant in the special military operation, a rifleman of the airborne assault battalion of the 810th Marine Brigade, Konstantin Samoshin, awarded the medals «For Courage» and «For Military Valor», spoke about his decision to take part in the SVO.

Probably, everyone is now thinking about how they can be useful. I thought about it too when the SVO began. I understood that they needed help, at least with one of my machine guns I could cover our borders so that the other side could not somehow get through here. I understood that my life is nothing in comparison with all of Russia, with all the people who live in Russia, and I made a choice for myself that I do not regret— the press service of the Government of Sevastopol quotes Konstantin.

The meeting participants shared their impressions of the dialogue with the heroes.

It was a very warm and sincere meeting. The servicemen told about their participation in the SVO, shared their experience and instilled confidence that our victory is near, — notes meeting participant Maria.

Let us recall that the All-Russian campaign «I Serve the Fatherland», organized by the state fund «Defenders of the Fatherland» and the society «Knowledge», is held throughout the country. Thanks to it, young people have the opportunity to meet with veterans of the SVO, to hear first-hand personal stories of soldiers about events, deeds, comradeship and victories.
