Tomorrow there will be the release of young lieutenants, where in the ranks there will be about 300 newly-minted officers. This year, officers' epaulettes were also given to graduate girls. They were the first to enter the Academy in 2013 and courageously went from entrant to the officer of the National Guard of Ukraine along with men. The training course for all was the same and the eight strongest girls will soon take positions in the units. "In the life of each officer there are decisive moments of the service. One of these bright moments is the receipt of officer shoulder straps. All of you have successfully completed your studies at the Academy and tomorrow you will receive diplomas, and then you will receive an adult officer's life. The command of the National Guard is quite the level of training that you received at the Academy, the quality of the organization of training and practical training, and this shows that the troops will soon receive a worthy replenishment. Be sure to remember that behind your shoulders there will always be people - your subordinates:
