Happy Defender of the Fatherland Day: what to wish in your own words

The holiday in honor of the defenders of the Fatherland appeared in Russia back in 1919. Initially, the celebration was planned to be associated with the anniversary of the creation of the Workers and Peasants Red Army (RKKA). However, it was not possible to prepare everything necessary for the appointed date (January 28 - the day of signing the decree on the Red Army), so it was decided to move the celebration to the end of winter. There was a historical justification for moving the date - on February 23, 1918 the Red Army units for the first time faced German troops near Pskov. The holiday itself was called "Red Gift Day".

During its existence, the celebration has undergone many changes. The modern Defender of the Fatherland Day appeared in the calendar only in 1995 after changes were made to the federal law "On holidays and memorial days", and in 2001 it was officially recognized as a day off.
