Title: Barracks Memories as Part of Bulgaria's Cultural and Military Historical Heritage
Authors: Iliya Valev

Abstract: The report raises the issue of the military-historical and cultural value of the memories of the barracks in the period after the Second World War - the time when the Bulgarian Army is entering a peacetime period of development. The issue is particularly relevant given that conscription, which has a strong influence on the development of our society and has left a lasting mark on it, has been abolished today.
The importance of collecting military barracks memories is especially great. They are bearers of historical memory and national identity. The observations so far clearly show that the passage through the war is established in the Bulgarian national memory as a tradition that sets moral norms and rituals. And although this tradition has already been broken, it still serves as a model for the upbringing of the younger generations.
