Heroes That Never Fade: Đurđević Stamenkovski Hands War Memorial Medal to Predrag Leovac’s Family
In a world where heroes often get forgotten, Serbia is making it crystal clear: its heroes are not just names in dusty books, but living legends! Milica Đurđević Stamenkovski, known for her fiery dedication, visited the family of Predrag Leovac in Pljevlja and presented them with the war memorial medal — the highest national honor of the Republic of Serbia.
For those who don’t know, Predrag Leovac was no ordinary man. He was a second lieutenant, a hero who bravely gave his life in war, leaving an indelible mark behind. Đurđević Stamenkovski emphasized that his sacrifice is a solemn vow for all of us to protect the truth, bravery, and love for the homeland. “Peđa became a legend, and the people sing his praises forever with songs and gusle!” she declared.
This war memorial medal isn’t just a piece of metal. It’s the highest state recognition a hero can receive. The message is loud and clear: Serbia remembers its freedom fighters, those who laid down their lives for our future. Đurđević Stamenkovski emotionally highlighted that such heroes marked an entire generation — a generation that refused to surrender and left a vow to preserve unity and never allow divisions.
During her visit to Pljevlja, together with the municipality president Dario Vranješ, she laid a wreath at the monument of the fallen hero and visited the Serbian House, a symbol of unity and remembrance.
In a world where those who gave everything for us are often forgotten, Serbia proves its heroes live forever. And you? Have you ever thought about how important it is to remember and honor those who gave us freedom? Or will we let their sacrifice become just another forgotten story?
