Greetings of Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Oleksandr Turchynov on the occasion of the Day of marine infantry

I sincerely congratulate the officers and soldiers of the marine infantry on the professional holiday!

The history of the victories of our marines began with the Cossack "Chaikas", and its fighters continue to write their glorious chronicle.

A marine today is a courageous, enduring and dedicated warrior-patriot of the state! Every day, putting your life at risk, you repel the enemy in the ATO zone.

May the glory and memory of the heroes who gave their lives defending their native land live forever!

Your firmness and commitment to the Homeland are an example of fulfilling the military duty. We trust in you and are proud of you! Always come back victorious from your combat missions! May God save you and your families!

Happy holiday! Glory to marine infantry! Glory to Ukraine!
