The Story Behind the Design

“The Marine Corps is always faithful!” is the principle Ukrainian marines prove in battle every day. They are called warriors of three elements for their ability to act confidently on land, on water, and in the air. Since the first days of Russian aggression, Ukraine’s Marine Corps has become a symbol of resilience, endurance, and combat brotherhood, and today its marines are where it is hardest: holding the defense, leading assaults, evacuating comrades under fire, and being the first to arrive where strength, resolve, and results are needed. Their strength lies in training and experience, and in their trust in one another, ready to stand shoulder to shoulder to the end.

It is a meaningful keepsake of courage and solidarity for Ukraine supporters worldwide, and a distinctive piece of contemporary Ukrainian philately for stamp collectors.
