Oksana voluntarily joined the 110th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after General-Chorąży Marko Bezruchko in the fall of 2025. After ten years of living and working in Warsaw, she returned to Ukraine and chose service in the Armed Forces, becoming a sergeant of the “Marko’s Shoulder” Social Support Service.
Her story was published on the brigade’s page.
With a degree in psychology and a master’s diploma from Ternopil National Pedagogical University, Oksana entered the army with a clear understanding of her role — working with people who carry the war on their shoulders every day.
In the brigade, she provides psychological and social support to servicemen and their families: assists with documentation, visits the wounded, escorts soldiers to psychological recovery programs, and works with families of the fallen and missing.
She is convinced that support services are a critically important part of the army, as the war does not end at the front line.
Oksana describes her mission simply — to be a bridge between military and civilians, to preserve trust, mutual respect, and the path to understanding after soldiers return from war.
