Festive Photo Collage of the Cadets of the Military Department at USUST

In honor of the Day of Defenders of Ukraine, a photo report was prepared, showcasing the challenging daily lives of the cadets from the Military Training Department of the State Special Transport Service at the Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies.

These young men and women are future officers, hardening their resilience and gaining knowledge in the midst of intensive training. They have already donned military uniforms, taken the oath, completed field training, received their initial officer ranks, skillfully handled weapons, and learned much about military science. But most importantly, they are motivated to serve because they understand that a person has only one homeland, and as the past three difficult years of war, marked by Russia’s horrific aggression, have shown, it must be defended.

Their training is a crucial step in their lives, preparing them for the potential trials and challenges of an officer’s fate.

Some of these young men and women already lead units in the Armed Forces, defend Ukraine, and restore destroyed infrastructure.
