During the Ukrainian war, my company was sent to the front line to gain time to retreat, as the troops were losing the battles against the Russians and we would be the last to leave. We arrived at the position and organized the defensive line, using military doctrine and innovating with actions to adapt to the peculiarities of combat, thus reversing the situation, when we began to pressure the Russians and inflict heavy losses on the enemy. As a result of our actions, planning and execution, the Ukrainian brigade returned to the line and strengthened the defense. For this, I was awarded the "Cross of Honor" medal of the 95th Brigade of the Ukrainian Army.
