A simple builder from Chernivtsi, Andriy Kotsik, who never had combat experience, commanded an assault group of 7 mobilised men, who successfully captured the Russian position without losses, destroyed 4 and captured 10 POWs, captured 3 machine guns, a sniper rifle, and more.

In the future, people will not say Ukrainians fight like heroes. They will say heroes fight like Ukrainians.

It's incredible how humble and calm this warrior is! He explains this as if it were so easy. No stress... No showing off... I am amazed by so much courage and trust in the team! I ❤️🇺🇦! You guys are the best!

Emphasises the trust and confidence they have in the chain of command, throughout the ranks. They are the very opposite of russian cannon fodder, each given responsibility which enables them to work together so effectively.

Very good job! But stay alive, your construction skills will be sorely needed all over Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!

The eyes of man who has seen things no one will hear about. My heart akes for him to come back to his loved ones in peace. A man who builds is not meant to destroy…

Incredible work, Andriy!! ✊🏻🇺🇦❤️ You were meant to be a warrior and a leader. 🫡✨ We thank you for answering the call of duty and of love for country. Because of men like you and your soldiers, Ukraine will win! 💪🏻🔥🙏🏻💙💛💙💛

He's so humble, almost shy to take the praise. Hopefully this war will end soon so he can get back home and start to rebuild his country.

Proves the age old British military adage of the six P’s: Prior Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance And in this case an incredible result, particularly keeping the team casualty free ✌🏼👍🏼
