At the very beginning, the holiday was celebrated modestly, with a short review of the Tsar of Bulgaria taking place. For a long time, in parallel with the Day of Bravery, there was Victory Day, the so-called Little St. George's Day, celebrated on November 27 in honor of the Battle of Slivnitsa during the Serbo-Bulgarian War. In 1931, the Day of Bravery was declared martial celebration of the army.
