WORLD CITIZEN
AWARD
FOR A FORGOTTEN HERO
OF OUR TIME
Within the next three weeks the
Association of World Citizens will present Colonel Stanislav
Petrov with a special World Citizen Award. Petrov is credited
by many experts in the field of nuclear weapons and policy as
possibly averting nuclear war between the U.S. and the Soviet
Union through his dramatic action in September of 1983. The was
a period of extreme tension between the two countries.
Our Russian Branch in Moscow
will make the award presentation. For the dramatic story and
heroic action of Stanislav Petrov, read the article "Global Disaster Averted
by a Forgotten Hero of Our Time" by Douglas Mattern
in the Recent Articles page on this website.
In addition to the award, we
want to present Petrov with a financial award as he lives on
a meager pension in a small town near Moscow. If you would like
to contribute to this award, send your donation to:
Association of World
Citizens
55 New Montgomery Street, Suite 224
San Francisco, CA 94105
Tel: 415-541-9610
Email: worldcit@best.com
State "Donation for Petrov" with your check. The goal
is to raise $1000.
