„Listen to Your Motherland!”
Szöveg: Lieutenant Gábor Horváth | 2018. július 25. 6:52The Hungarian soldiers commemorated the Triumph of Nándorfehérvár with the Noon Bell in Kosovo.
On July 22 at noon the bells toll in every church of the world. Saint Cristoforo Chapel in Camp Maréchal de Lattre de Tassigny (CMLT), in Kosovo is no exception to this, as the soldiers of the 18th Rotation of the HDF KFOR Contingent (KFOR-14 HUNCON) have also attended the ceremony to pay tribute to their military predecessors and the Hungarian military glory.
In his festive address Lieutenant Colonel Dr. Gábor Kolonics, the Commander of the Health Centre of the Contingent pointed out that the Hungarian soldiers had been aware of their duty all through our history, and stood their ground always defying the conditions of the day, and our ancestors proved this in 1456 at Nándorfehérvár, where the then world’s most modern army attacked us. Then the Hungarian heroes defended Europe from the Islamic conquest, and thanks to this more than 560 years later the bells toll for them again.
Lieutenant Colonel Kolonics closed the festive commemoration with a citation from the Füveskönyv (Herbarium) of Sándor Márai.
