The military is all about order and precision. And yet, it isn’t. The military can be explained through three-letter abbreviations. And yet, it can’t.
Journalist and serviceman Dmytro Krapyvenko guides readers through the everyday realities of an army at war. Expect a journey through emotions, memories, trenches near enemy positions, peaceful cities, government offices, and morgues. This book is a tribute to fallen soldiers, a nod to those still serving, and a message to those still deciding whether to enlist.
«Everything around you in the army is usually reduced to three-letter abbreviations. And once you immerse yourself in this world, you start doing the same — you shorten everything, use these acronyms, and speak their language. It becomes a code, a way of recognizing who’s ‘one of us’ and who’s not».

Reviews
«This is an insider’s account of war in all its details: from the absurdity of daily routines à la The Good Soldier Švejk to its most infernal — and, at times, its most heroic — moments».
Yuriy Makarov, journalist, writer
«One of the first honest, unsentimental, and deeply moving memoirs about the start of the full-scale war. […] This is the perspective of experienced soldiers — one our society desperately needs to understand why joining the army remains crucial if we are still striving for victory, holding our lines, and reclaiming our temporarily occupied territories».
The debut collection of essays by journalist and serviceman Dmytro Krapyvenko. This book presents several dozen texts in which the author takes us through the realities of an army at war. Each essay has a short title of three letters — acronyms whose meaning and significance in the ecosystem of the Ukrainian military the author unpacks.
