According to Vera Feygina, head of the city department of culture, during the preparation for the Great Victory 70th anniversary in additional education institutions, clubs and libraries combat leaflets will be made by children, parents and teachers.

“When we remember that our grandfathers and great-grandfathers fought, shed blood, and these photos and letters are seen by our children and grandchildren, it is quite a different thing. This is a living history of the country,” she noted, adding that this patriotic action has resonated among students and adults.
