Haik Mailyan, a freedom fighter and member of the Special Regiment,
has seen the New Year in with his family this time.
Since the war in Nagorno-Karabakh ended, he has been serving in
Kalbajar, where he has seen several New Years in.
`This is the first time I have seen the New Year in at home during my
service,' Haik told Tert.am.
After serving in the Soviet army, 20-year-old Haik returned to Armenia
1989 and immediately left for Yeraskh. He fought in Kalbajar, Omar,
Karachinar, Shahumyan, Lachin, Kovsakan and Kubatlu.
He is a contract serviceman now.
The freedom fighter's family is living in Yerevan, in a flat presented
by Vazgen Sargsyan (Armenia's premier killed on October 27, 1999).
`In some cases, my wife and children visited me and we saw the New
Year in together,' Haik says.
He wishes all Armenians, especially Armenia's armed forces, peace and
stability. `Let no Armenian youth see what we had to see when we were
young,' Haik says.
