One of the most psychologically difficult of the consequences of the current epidemic of the coronavirus — an impossibility in the usual way to hold the main spring festival. 75th anniversary of the Victory planned is not the same — but life has made adjustments. More precisely, even not life, and fears for life — above all, remaining in the ranks of veterans of the great Patriotic war. They are already over ninety, and in the current situation that the veterans have to protect the most. We called several legendary people, past the fronts of the great war, to congratulate them on behalf of the staff and readers of “MK” – and find out how they will meet that day.

I’m out of town, in Monino, – told “MK” the General-the Colonel, the legendary commander of long-range aviation Vasily Reshetnikov. In our holiday village this General attack has not yet reached. We live here in a certain distance. Every day I try to do walks. On a holiday, if all goes well, we will meet with loved ones — at a distance, of course. Stand up, talk, look at each other. Such circumstances, what can you do. The editorial staff and readers of “MK” – the good health and vitality to the victory Day was a real feast!

In an unusual solitude will hold a Day of Victory and Colonel-General Boris Utkin (ended the war a captain, commander of a battalion guards mortar”Katyusha”). “I congratulate the newspaper as a member of the Komsomol with pre-war experience – said Utkin, and “MK” is read not only carefully, but also meticulously, from the perspective of a graduate of the Soviet school of the late thirties.”

the Team of “MK” has congratulated on Victory Day a war veteran Evsey Yakovlevich Rudinsky, who during the war was the Navigator of the bomber PE-2 and that turned out to be is a reader of our newspaper

– “Moskovsky Komsomolets” – is always my respected newspaper was! So thank you very much for the congratulations.

– something you want to wish to our readers?

– nowadays you can wish one. Health to all, speedy deliverance from this trouble. Health, health and health. All the trouble these problems we will survive – and not so worried. Once we have restored our country. Now, few will remember how we worked and everyone could rebuild. In short – will survive. It is a pity that, of course, the holiday was not as planned. To prepare for, especially prepared by veterans-veterans of many organizations. But this time, better yet, without occasion. As a pilot, I am glad that all of our 75 aircraft flew over Moscow. First of all – airplanes. While the current planes can fly in any weather, even if will not see them.

-Feast is postponed, but I hope that it will. Will you come?

-of Course, go! Here can not be otherwise. So what else R��W will tell you health. And thanks for the congratulations.
