2025100th Anniversary of the Military Magazine Kaitse Kodu! - First Day Cover

The military magazine Kaitse Kodu! is the fifth-oldest Estonian publication still in print today. Its first issue was published on October 14, 1925; the last pre-war issue appeared on June 20, 1940; and the magazine was restored in 1993 by the Estonian Defense League. For a century, it has embodied patriotism, national defense awareness, and civic courage. The stamp commemorating it is reportedly the second in the world and the first in Europe dedicated to a military magazine. This stamp embodies Estonia's determination to defend itself. We have much to be proud of and much to cherish!
