The March on August 24, Khreschatyk will be without armor. But the preparations are impressive. Perfectly matched and perfectly equipped “box” units from all branches of the armed forces.
Yes, this outfit while a little on the front. But these guys will return to the ATO with the new gear. This army, which we never had, and that you feel pride in the country. Infantry, paratroopers, Marines, guard, national guardsmen. Great guys. On the corner of Prorizna hundred gulp smoothly pulled: “Glory to Ukraine – glory to heroes! Glory to nation – death to the enemy! Ukraine – ponad all!” This is a volunteer part – 24th assault battalion “Aidar”, the famous “Afghan” Roth. Young recruits, from the heroes of August 2014 in the ranks of the remaining units, but morale was still high. I took a picture of the commander is “said” – the current leader of the “Afghan” company party battles near the city of Lugansk, he was there all the scorching heat of the summer fighting. But “Storm” is he exactly a year ago took the mortally wounded Oleg Manuka of Novoselovka, “Storm” is no longer in service... a lot of “aidarova” who went to the vet, came to the street, and stand with twin cities next. Very cool that the command was invited to participate in the parade “Aidar”. And when I watched the Ukrainian military unit of the regular army in unison chanting slogans Ian, I remembered a textbook phrase Bandera that day will come and the millions cry out “Glory to Ukraine” on the square. Along Khreshchatyk marching army, which will never admit of bondage for his people. Hopefully, during the March, the President will not forget to say a few words in memory of those heroes who exactly one year ago, on August 24, took the brunt of the Russian aggressors, and fought with his life in order was the first parade of freedom. It would look very dignified. Also to thank is those who are in difficult conditions sitting in trenches and dugouts on the reference points under attacks. And be sure to thank the soldiers-volunteers not only from the army (I would like to be invited, for example, “Azov” and “Right sector”). It is important not to forget those who went into battle without orders and subpoenas. Energy on Khreschatyk extraordinary. Yes, it's not V-day. Victory needs to be mined. But we have soldiers of Victory. The soldiers for the front, and the March is an honour, not a SideShow. And it's worth seeing with your own eyes.
