#callsignUkraine – they didn’t go to the classes. They went to the frontline.

Preschool teachers who every day raised and taught kids in kindergarten chose to wear camouflage. Today their priority – free and safe Ukraine for children.

For example a former preschool teacher became commander one of the division anti-aircraft missile regiment. Before the army she attended different courses, trained a lot to be prepared. At first she was in special forces.

Do any countries have examples like this? We know that Ukraine has a lot.

Ukrainians put their civilian life on pause and changed into camouflage. There is nothing more important than living in a free country. Existing in slavery it is not our scenario.

Thanks to all of the preschool teachers for conscious choice. You can be sure of it. You are a strong example for your children.

We believe that you will return to your kids soon. You will bring up them like true Ukrainians who will love their country. And they will glorify Ukraine and stand for Ukraine like you when they grow up.

#callsignUkraine is a project about civilian ukrainians who had typical professions. But now they are fighting for the freedom of Ukraine. Ukrainian veterans foundation, in collaboration with Ukrainian artist Nikita Titov, prepared illustrations about them.
