 To the servicemen of the 103rd Guards Separate Mobile Brigade and veterans of the Airborne Forces Dear Comrades! I congratulate you on the Airborne and Special Operations Forces Day, the 85th anniversary of the formation of the Airborne Forces! On August 2, 1930, during exercises near Voronezh, a unit was parachuted for the first time to perform a tactical combat mission. Airborne soldiers have shown determination and courage during the armed conflict at Khalkhin Gol, the Soviet-Finnish and Great Patriotic Wars, and in rendering international assistance. The history of the 103rd Guards Airborne Division has become a source of pride and legend; its post-war period is inextricably linked with the Dvina region. We are proud of the courage, professionalism, and bravery of the airborne soldiers who honorably fulfilled their international duty in Afghanistan. Eight were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, and more than 11,000 were awarded orders and medals.
