Vera Bailak, medical sister in the Tuvan Cavalry squadron, was an official guest at the Victory festivities which take place these days in Moscow. 81-year-old war veteran was selected out of the very few left veterans due mostly to her combat merits, her labour activity – she is still the head of the huge farm, and good health. She turned out to be almost the only one fit to stand 7-hours long air flight to Moscow. She is accompanied in this trip by doctor Shonchalai Mongush. Today she took part in the Victory Parade on the Red Square, was present at the Presidential Reception given by Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin, was among the honourable spectators of the grandiose show on the Red Square depicting the episodes of World War II.
