Astgh Galeyan, the mother of Mkhitar Galeyan, who was immortalized in the 44-day war, sent a message to the Armenian soldier on the occasion of the New Year and Christmas holidays.
In particular, the message says: "Years ago, when Mkhitars was in school, we wrote a letter-essay to the Armenian soldier together.
And when my son was drafted, I often read this letter, I was excited, smiling, proud. Unfortunately, reading this letter today only makes me emotional. I am already writing this letter after my son.
"Hello Armenian soldier, a mother who gave her most precious gift to her motherland is writing to you and conveying her heartfelt words. Serving in the Armenian army is a great honor, I hope you realize how great a responsibility it is to serve the motherland, the strength of the army lies in the courage of the soldier.
It is thanks to guys like you that we rest our heads on the pillow, the safety of all of us is entrusted to you. I want you to serve with honor, to serve in peace, to return safely to your native hearth.
Soldier, my son, only the vigilance of the army gives strength to the country, a strong and powerful army is the guarantee of the existence of your country. Remember, you will never save your homeland by begging for peace, they impose peace with weapons, force, knowledge and the example of the martyred heroes for our country.
Remember, our nation has never been a "nation-martyr", we have been a "nation-victory", we have a handful of Armenia that we must keep with our teeth, we have a captive Artsakh world, between us, between you, we should never the hope of returning to Artsakh is extinguished. a hope for which a very good generation, a golden generation, did not spare its life.
He did not spare, because they are the descendants of Chaush, Andranik Nzhdeh, Avo, Tatul, Dushman. They spared no effort, because they realized that behind them is the motherland, father, mother, sister, brother.
They fell because they did not leave their friend. Brave soldier of the Armenian Army, I have been saying "Happy New Year" for 4 years in Yerablur, but today I will make an exception and tell you. "Soldier, happy New Year and Christmas, may it come in peace, may it cleanse my homeland from evil and evil, may it be a year of victory, pride, and prosperity for Armenians, may all types of weapons and ammunition disappear from the face of the earth.
Soldier, I wish you a peaceful and trouble-free service. I believe in you, a soldier of the "Armenian Army".
