Monte Melkonian Fund


<<previous back next>>
January 1993. Monte, now known by his nom de guerre "Avo," in a trench on the front lines in Martuni. In the last year and one-half of his life, Commander Avo lead the 4000 men under his command to one victory after another against a larger and better-armed enemy. He and Colonel Haroyan reorganized the Martuni fighters, drove Azeri forces out of the district, shot down enemy aircraft, and captured and destroyed scores of enemy tanks. As always, Avo fought on the front lines, and as a result he was wounded more than once in the course of the fighting.
