Quote from Andrii Biletskyi, Commander of the 3rd Army Corps: "Today, two generations meet here. Colonel Konovalets represents the generation of the Sich Riflemen, the Black Zaporozhians, and the fighters of the UVO, OUN and Ukrainian Insurgent Army. We are the generation of the Maidans, the Anti-Terrorist Operation and the full-scale Russia–Ukraine war. Each of these generations inherited the Ukrainian cause unfinished.
