On the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on December 6, an information hour took place at the library of Bukovinian State Medical University, titled “Past and Present of the Ukrainian Army”
Ukraine had to follow a long and thorny path to the day of its independence. Many trials and tribulations fell on the Ukrainians in the struggle for freedom. And always in this struggle, a soldier walked alongside the citizen.

Library staff reminded those present about important periods in the creation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. About the bright page of the struggle for independence – the Cossack movement (middle of the 17 th century). The Cossacks became the force that for centuries has been closely guarding the freedom and dignity of Ukraine as an independent, sovereign state. About how, after a hundred-year break,
the Ukrainian army was reborn again. This time it was a small unit in the Austrian army – the legion of Ukrainian Sich Riflemen (1914-1920). These were really difficult times for Ukraine – the First World War. On the one hand, Russia, on the other, Austria-Hungary, and Sich Riflemen fought for their Ukrainian state. About the military-political formation of the Ukrainian liberation movement, the
Ukrainian rebel army, founded in late 1942, whose strategic goal was the restoration of Ukrainian statehood. About the new historical page of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which began after the Revolution of Dignity. For 5 years, the Ukrainian army made an incredible breakthrough in development, turning from a demoralized armed formation into a combat-ready and motivated army.
Armor, weapons, military tactics and methods of forming troops changed. And the freedom-loving spirit, invincibility and the ability to sacrifice, which surprises the whole world, remained unchanged.

The event was held for the third-year students of (groups17-18) of the Faculty of Medicine No. 2 at the initiative of group curators, assistant of the Department of Histology, Cytology and Embryology, L.A.Andrushchak, Associate Professor of the Department of Pharmacology, I.G.Kyshkan.
