From the publisher:

The book is part of a large-scale author's project to cover the complex process of formation of the Land Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine since the country's independence. For the first time in Ukrainian historiography, their history, organisational structure and symbolism are covered in detail. Based on a wealth of personal experience, extensive archival and source material, as well as a private unique collection of military symbols, the author examines the process of the emergence and development of military symbols in the period 1994-2010. The book focuses primarily on the history and symbolism of the 8th Army Order of the Red Banner of the Rapid Reaction Forces Corps of the Land Forces, the foremost unit of the modern Ukrainian army.

For researchers, teachers, cadets and students of both military and civilian educational institutions, as well as for anyone interested in the history and symbolism of Ukrainian military formations.
