The Bravery Day and Day of the Bulgarian Army were marked in Sofia with a water blessing of the military flags and other sacred flags. Few countries managed to preserve their name, faith and language despite the vicissitudes and tests of time. Bulgaria is one of these countries which means that the Bulgarian people have always realized the need for unity of sword, spirit and word, Bulgaria’s President and Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Bulgarian Armed Forces Rumen Radev said in his speech on occasion of the Bravery Day and the Day of the Bulgarian Army in the presence of hundreds of representatives of different troops. His speech was followed by a military parade with the participation of military equipment of the Bulgarian Land and Air Forces. The Brothers in Arms club joined this year’s parade with a presentation of military equipment from the period of the Second World War.
