MEMORY DAY
Dear colleagues!
While greeting for all with 74-th anniversary of Victory over Nazism in WWII (1939-1945)! It’s impossible to forget the deeds of our veterans. It's sad, but every year there are less and less participants of the Second World War and every Ukrainian is obliged to thank them and respect their courage and the efforts made during the terrible years of the war.
Thanks to the heroic deeds of these veterans we have the opportunity to live today.
It is pleasant that the team of our institute organized a visit to veterans– the children of the war - former employees of the Institute.
Unfortunately, there are only five of these veterans remained today alive but there is a need to tell briefly about everyone.
