On the occasion of marking the day of Serbian unity, freedom and national flag, the day when we celebrate the breakthrough of the Salonika front, we present the film Guardian of Honor and Pride dedicated to Đorđe Mihailović, the legendary guardian of the Serbian military cemetery Zeitenlik in Thessaloniki. Zeitenlik Serbian military cemetery is one of the holiest places for the Serbian people. Over 8,000 Serbian soldiers who died in the First World War fighting for freedom are buried there. For half a century already, their guardian Đorđe Mihailović has been watching over the thousands of mounds of Serbian warriors. Since 1960, every morning before sunrise, in a military uniform, the last guardian from the Mihailović line has been cleaning the cemetery, opening the iron gate, lighting candles and welcoming and sending off the descendants of the warriors who were stopped in eternal peace after the terrible Golgotha and the breakthrough of the Salonika front.
