Kalinin NPP: ТPicture of MemoryУ action was started on the eve of the Victory Day

ТPicture of MemoryУ is the action proposed to be held in Udomlya city by the employees of Kalinin nuclear plant (Tver region).

On the Victory day Kalinin nuclear plant employees will traditionally take part in the solemn events devoted to the 66th anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War. On that day flowers and wreaths will be laid to the bed of honor in the Park of Victory and to the Memorial, and the military men shows, celebration concern and other events will be organized.

On the eve of May 9, Director of Kalinin NPP Leonid I. Martynovchenko greeted the veterans and the citizens of Udomlya on the Victory Day. ТThere has not been a more cruel battle in Russian heroic chronicle than the Great Patriotic War, and there has not been a deed nobler than that of our people who saved the worldУ, it was said in the speech. ТWe pay the debt of deep respect to those who brought us the sacred Victory at the expense of enormous efforts and even lifeУ.

ТI wish you, our dearest veterans, long live years, health and well-being. We say thank you for our peaceful lives, for our children and grandchildren, for their happiness and peaceful skies above their heads!
