Anna, the wife of the deceased Guards Lieutenant Colonel Pavel Krivov, gave a speech at the event:
“Initially, I had no desire to participate in the project. But after a little thought, I realized that it was necessary. I, my husband and my children need it. My husband received another rank and military promotion in February, and he did not manage to put on his ceremonial tunic. Therefore, the guys who served with him helped me make shoulder straps, and I took part in this shooting. Other widows are also involved in the project. It's important and they need it. This is our relationship with our husbands. Our last opportunity for someone to write a letter to their spouse and tell him that we are proud of him. I am proud of my spouse and I want my children to be proud. I want them to never forget about him and about the guys who died there and are fighting now,” the woman said.
