“I have always said that every girl like me should have a brother like Ashot,” says Ani Vardapetyan, his sister.
“The Heroes” program tells about Ashot Vardapetyan from Tavush, who was immortalized in the 44-day war.
Before the difficult battle, his senior friends, knowing what was waiting for them, told him to avoid and not to go, but he did not hesitate, “Where my comrades-in-arms are, there I shall be.”
