GREETINGS
TO MILITARY VETERANS
ON THE OCCASION OF 04 DECEMBER – MILITARY VETERANS DAY
I wish to extend my cordial greetings to all military veterans on the occasion of 04 December – Military Veterans Day.
On that day, 110 years ago precisely, an armistice was signed in the First Balkan War between the allies on one side, and defeated Ottoman Empire on the other, and the Ministry of the Army within the Government of the Kingdom of Serbia undertook responsibility for veterans’ care and satisfaction of their needs.
Cherishing the traditions of old warriors of the Royal Serbian Army, you, military veterans, best show that the memory of our ancestors and history we have are something to be proud of, not ashamed; and those memories must not be forgotten, because it is the military veterans that made possible for us to be where we are today.
We are grateful to the military veterans for their sacrifice and send an outspoken message that that was not in vain and that their spirit will live eternally above this country.
Our military veterans’ deeds are a historical diamond which will beautify forever the schoolbooks of future generations. Such deeds are the most powerful tool for preserving a high morale in the members of the Serbian Armed Forces!
I congratulate you on your holiday, wishing you good health, personal and family happiness.
