Happy New Year, soldier: beautiful drawings, greetings and poems for writing

The New Year is approaching — a holiday that symbolizes hope, new beginnings and the warmth of the family hearth. He acquires special significance for those who meet him far from home, fulfilling their military duty. On the eve of the celebration, the campaign "Wish a soldier a Happy New Year!" is gaining momentum across the country, the purpose of which is to support the soldiers and give them a piece of home warmth. Especially for the holiday, Izvestia has prepared New Year's cards and greetings for those who are currently on the front line.

Since the beginning of December, specialized greeting collection points for military personnel have been opening in Moscow and other cities. They work at New Year's fairs, shopping malls, and city holiday venues such as Winter in Moscow. Here in the pavilions of the Gift Factory, anyone can leave a parcel or a letter for the participants of their event. This initiative unites the efforts of volunteer movements, public organizations, educational institutions and ordinary citizens.

Schoolchildren and students are actively involved in the New Year's campaign. Kindergartens, schools, and universities organize the collection of letters and postcards, which are then passed on to the organizers. Since the launch of the initiative, over 3 million letters have been sent to the fighters. They contain words of support and gratitude, children's drawings, wishes for good health, victory and a speedy return home. Such messages and postcards, especially handmade ones, often become personal talismans for military personnel.

Postcards often depict traditional holiday symbols.: Santa Claus, elegant Christmas trees, snowmen, as well as doves of peace, St. George ribbons, ruby and gold stars of heroes. Such images, combined with warm words, become an important tool for maintaining the morale of soldiers.

Even a couple of warm words can warm you up better than hot tea. The fighters note that they especially appreciate informal, heartfelt messages that remind them of simple human joys and life at home. You can also wish fortitude, good luck, a peaceful sky and a speedy meeting with your family.

Participation in such actions as "New Year's mail to a soldier of the SVO" or "Wish a soldier a Happy New Year!" is a simple and accessible way for everyone to express their civic position and gratitude. Such initiatives, coordinated by the movements "Veterans of Russia", "Reliable Rear" and many others, do not just deliver gifts. They create an invisible but strong bond between the rear and the front, embodying unity and support.

In order for the congratulations to reach the recipient, a letter marked "Letter to a soldier" should be sent to the address: Moscow, Suvorovskaya Square, house 2, building 1, Central House of the Russian Army. If the greeting is intended for a specific serviceman, it is sent through the Russian Post, indicating the full name of the serviceman and the number of the military unit, to the address: 103400, Moscow-400. Delivery to the SVO zone is then provided by the Russian Ministry of Defense.

Under the quiet crunch of New Year's snow, I want to say a simple human "thank you." For your self-control, for the long nights on duty, thanks to which we can sleep peacefully. May your sky be peaceful and your heart be brave in the coming year. I wish that luck was your faithful companion, and disappointment and longing did not disturb your peace. Come home the hero you are!"

A man from the city is writing to you, whose peaceful sleep you are guarding. Thank you for giving us this invisible but durable shield.

I wish you such clear and calm days, and may the guardian angel given to you at birth protect you from dangers. Meet the holiday with hope in your heart. Happy New Year!"

"Dear warrior!

I bow low to you from our whole family. Your service is the most valuable gift for our country. I wish that the New Year brings you not only victories and successful operations, but also a lot of simple joys: from the first snow and a funny postcard to meeting your family and the taste of homemade food. May your path, whatever it may be, always lead home, and your faith in the rightness of your cause be harder than granite. Take care of yourself!"

I'm writing to you on the eve of the holiday, when everyone is making wishes. My main thing is that everything is fine with you. Thank you for keeping the peace of our homeland.

Take care of yourself for this meeting!"

Happy New Year greetings for the soldiers of the SVO in verse

"Happy New Year, our brave defender,
Happy New Year, brave fighter!
Let it spin light white-white
Snow when you get home.
Let it be in the arms of warm and gentle
The soot of the fighting will be forgotten,
And in the eyes of the dear, serene,
Pride grows stronger, love shines!"

"Happy New Year to all who are on duty,
Who carries out his service diligently!

No explosions will disrupt!
May you always be lucky in everything
And they avoid misfortune.,
May happiness find its way to you
Even through snowstorms and inclement weather!"

"Happy New Year to you, fighters!
You are great fellows!
The country sleeps peacefully with you,
The days pass smoothly with you!
On the holiday, we wish you
From your favorite telegrams,
Happiness, joy, good luck
And big wins to boot!"

Let the sky shine with transparent stars,
And at the moment when the chimes strike long,
God bless you for victory!"

Our army of fighters!
We wish them strength and well.,
And have a fun vacation!
Let it be in battles, in exercises,
You're always lucky in everything.,
And let the joyful moments
There will be more than enough worries!"
