On the eve of the 81st anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, an unusual event was held to celebrate Radio Day. The organizers were employees of SBI "Service-112", who presented to the audience a theatrical production at the junction of history, technology and the memory of generations. The play was built around the key role of signalmen and radio operators during the Great Patriotic War. The actors, who are active members of the emergency call service, reminded the audience that the modern 112 System is the direct heir to those very military communications hubs where the lives of thousands of people were at stake.
Today, the operator accepts a call in seconds, and then the connection was established under bullets. But the bottom line is the same: "lives depend on whether you are heard on the other end of the line," the organizers explained the idea of the production.
