The Governor of Burgas region Valcho Cholakov has been received on board of the frigate “Gordi” where he reviewed the order of the crew from the ship’s Commander Pavlin Petkov. Cholakov was rendered this high honour for the first time on the occasion of the Day of Courage and Bulgarian Army. The Governor saluted the officers, petty officers and sailors and gave as a present an imitation of the oldest processed gold discovered at the Bulgarian Black sea coast.
The frigate “Gordi” is one of the three frigates in the framework of project “E-71” received from the Kingdom of Belgium as a part of the effectives of the Naval Station since 2008. Due to technical reasons and structural changes it has been out of function for several years but with the help of the state in the person of the Governor and the high motivation of the crew it is under way again from today.
