Today, the day of memory of St. Apostle Andrew Pervozvannogo, marks the 15th anniversary of the installation of the first in Russia new monument to the George Cavalry, a participant in the Russian-Japanese and Great Wars white general Sergei Markov . Markovtsev's regimental sign was a black and white St. Andrew’s flag.
The initiator of the installation of the monument, Vice-President of the Skobelev Committee and the head of the White Soldiers project, Alexander Alekaev, said in an interview with Russian Line that “the installation of the monument was a tribute to the officers, soldiers, junkers and Cossacks who fought with Bolshevism.”
“For Russia, where there are still thousands of monuments to the God-fighting and Christ-sellers, the installation of the monument to the Russian officer, the St. George Cavalier was a landmark event. The 15 years that this monument stands in Salsk testify that many Russian people respect the feat of the White Guards, ”noted the initiator of the monument installation.
“We need to remember that there are no winners in the Civil War, all losers. This is the tragedy of the whole nation, when the Russians killed each other. And our task today is to ensure that we remember this lesson, and this has never happened again, ”said Alexander Alekaev.
In this regard, he stated that within the framework of the “White Warriors” project, work is continuing to perpetuate the memory of the officers of the Russian Imperial Army. "So, this month the eleventh book of the series is published about one of the last commanders of the Izmailovo Regiment of the Guard, St. George's Cavalry, General's Staff, Major-General BV Gerua," said A. Alekaev
“Work is underway. In 2012, the second edition of the book Markov and Markovtsi was published , prepared for publication by the White Soldiers Information Agency and the Dignity Publishing House.

In addition, in February 2018, in the Holy Ascension Cathedral of Novocherkassk, where General Markov was burial service, the kiosk of the Mother of God "Fast Listener" was installed on the 100th anniversary of the First Kuban campaign. Thus, in the aisle of the Aksai Icon of the Mother of God, in the memory of General Markov, there were already two badges - St. Sergius of Radonezh , the patron saint of Makov (October 2002), and the Most Holy Theotokos.
