19th of Farvardin 1394 SH corresponding to April 8, 2015, the festivity for the Day of Art of Islamic Revolution was held by the Art Bureau in Soureh Hall, and in the final section of the festivity, the elect Man of the Day of Art of Islamic Revolution was remembered as such: "Morteza Sarhangi a founder of Iran's resistance literature and the creator of a huge movement, a role model and motivator of the Islamic revolution in the field of resistance and Islamic revolution made the country's literature needless from the imported one as the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution said.Thus, he was chosen as Man of the Year of Art of Islamic Revolution, and the plaque of Art of Islamic Revolution, 22 golden coins and the cost of a study trip will be presented to him."
Then, Morteza Sarhangi stood behind the podium and said:
"In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate. I had a roommate named Asghar Khani and we sat beside each other in the high school. Asghar was martyred in Nowzheh coup. I along with another guy washed Asghar in Behesht Zahra Cemetery's mortuary since he was our classmate. When I was going to Asghar's house, his younger brother was coming at the door. His name was Moharram. I was asking him to call Asgahr. He did so, and then we went for dawdling. Moharram was martyred in Kheibar Operations. He had grown up, had become a member of Islamic Revolution's Guards Corps (IRGC) and when he was martyred, I buried him with his uniform. His sister had stood beside the grave, saying "Mr. Morteza, put off my brother's boots. They needle him, undo his belt. It needles him." One morning, I was going to work, and I saw the neighborhood was a little disordered. I asked what had happened. I was said that Mr. Rastgoo had been martyred. He was a middle-aged man who had 7-8 children. He was a bus repairer. He had gone to war fronts to repair cars. A shrapnel had hit his heart. I along with another guy named Houshang also buried him. At that time, we were very young. His mother asked me to give her a hair of her son to keep it as a souvenir. When the neighborhood's guys returned from Ramazan Operations, they said that Karim Nowzari had been captured. Karim's mother went nowhere, neither to the wedding, nor to bazaar, nor to the neighbors' house. She said that Karim world come back and wait for me behind the closed door. Later, the guys said that Karim had been martyred, but we said that he had been captured so that her mother had a hope and tranquility. God helped me and made me familiar with Mr. Behboudi and then the Art Bureau and these polite managers and this happened for the war's literature. Karm's mother, Asghar, Mr. Rastgoo all of them are the ones that the official history of the war would never remember them. The nature of defensive wars is popular. The Art Bureau is showing the people's role in the war and to me this is a great pride for the bureau, as well as for us."
