Summary
A soldier with the Ukrainian Armed Forces raises a Ukrainian national flag during an independence day ceremony Aug. 23, 2015, in L'viv, Ukraine. The flag was signed by soldiers serving in Eastern Ukraine and returned to L'viv to be raised alongside the national flag. Paratroopers with the U.S. Army's 173rd Airborne Brigade attended the ceremony marking 24 years of Ukrainian independence from the Soviet Union. The paratroopers are in Ukraine for the second of several planned rotations to train Ukraine's newly-formed national guard as part of Fearless Guardian, which is scheduled to last through November.
