Destinies
“Gor was an unusual boy,” says Davit. And I think the same is said about all the boys who fought for the freedom of the Homeland. Or maybe they were really unusual. As much as I do not want to believe, no matter how hard it is to come to terms with, but maybe war chooses the best.
There is so much hope, will and optimism in Ogita’s voice. I would very much like you to hear that voice with which he interpreted a philosophy of a complete and true life.

“As a child, Vrezh used to come here a lot to listen to Vorotan ‘s’ conversation,'” said the father, at whose invitation we were in Sisian. On July 1, Vrezh would have turned 29, but the last war was in 2020. He took the lives of thousands of Armenians in the fall … One of them was Vrezh.
I was looking for other stories. I should have written about the exploits of the commander of the reconnaissance squad Tatul Hakobyan … But I should present a most beautiful love story.

He will say that Tatul was the happiest man in the world, then he will tell how he put that happiness on the table of salvation of the homeland…
