A meeting of higher education seekers with the soldiers of the air defense of Ukraine with the call signs “Carlos” and “Marathon” took place at the Donetsk State University of Internal Affairs.
The defenders shared their combat experience with the youth, talked about the service on the front line and the tasks of air defense units. They emphasized that the main mission of air defense fighters is to repel enemy’s air attacks, destroy enemy’s aircrafts, missiles, and drones, as well as to protect strategic facilities, troop groups, and the country’s rear.
In the course of open communication, Marathon emphasized the importance of gender equality and creation of a barrier-free environment as the foundation of a just and inclusive society, where everyone has equal opportunities for self-realization. He fondly recalled how female servicemen saved their comrades during shelling, risking their own lives.
At the end of the meeting, the students asked questions about tactics in battle, the importance of moral stability, and the sources of motivation that allow heroes to remain invincible in the most difficult conditions.
