No contact with command, a comrade maimed by a mine. A former TV director fought—and halted the Russians
He saved three soldiers in six months, ArmyInform says. One wounded comrade he could only hear on the radio.
A Ukrainian drone sergeant, Senior Sergeant Dmytro, known by the call sign Berezen "March", fought on the frontlines for six months, ArmyInform reported. Before the Russian invasion, he spent 20 years as a television director. In the 152nd Separate Jaeger Brigade, he served as the chief sergeant of a drone platoon, working with three crews and training soldiers.
When the need arose to reinforce the infantry, Dmytro volunteered to switch roles. During one intense firefight, he saved three soldiers, and stopped a Russian advance when contact with command was lost. One of his comrades was hit by a mine and lost a leg, requiring urgent medical attention. Dmytro tended to the wounded soldier while Russian troops advanced towards them.
Suddenly, another wounded soldier tried to reach them, and communication with command was lost. Dmytro, focused on halting the Russian advance, killed two Russian soldiers and successfully halted their progress. He said his primary concern was protecting his fellow soldiers, as any breakthrough could have endangered the troops holding positions behind him.
Despite his heroic actions, not everyone could be saved. The wounded comrade was approximately 200 meters away and could not be reached during the fight. Over the six months Dmytro spent on the frontlines, he saved three soldiers in total.
Dmytro emphasized that no amount of money could ever compare to the value of human life.
