Ivan: “I am from the village of Oleshnyk in Vynogradiv district, Zakarpattia region. I joined the army on March 1, 2022, despite being 57 years old. I couldn’t stay home. My wife assumed I was joking when I mentioned I was heading to the military recruitment office. My call sign is “Vujko” (Uncle), but the lads just call me “Dido” (Grandpa).

He looks like a tough and determined individual.
I wish he and all the defenders to be quickly back home with their loved ones living in peace.
Glory to Ukraine!
Glory to its heroes!
