Lessons of Courage and Memory for Students

On December 2, in honor of the Day of the Unknown Soldier, the head of the ChSPU Pamyat search unit Nikolay Myasnikov gave a lesson of courage and memory for students of 6th and 11th grades of school number 31 in Cheboksary.
He spoke about the history of the search movement in Russia and Chuvashia, about the expeditions of Pamyat search unit. In addition, the students watched a presentation and a video based on the results of the last two memorial search missions. The children were touched by the tragic fate of Ivan Kochetkov, a soldier from the Mordovian Republic, whose mortal medallion was discovered by the members of Pamyat search unit during the last memorial search mission in the Tver Region. The artifacts of the Great Patriotic War aroused keen interest, among them there are models of ammunition, details of equipment and personal belongings of the soldiers of the Red Army. Such meetings with schoolchildren are necessary in the matter of patriotic education of the younger generation.
