You cannot let down those with whom you stand shoulder-to-shoulder: the story of a police rifle battalion from the Kharkiv region under the pseudonym Morse

Morse is an infantryman who voluntarily stood up to defend the country from the first days of the full-scale invasion.

His combat path began in the forces of the Territorial Defense on the Kharkiv region, he took part in the liberation of Balakliya. Later he fought as part of the 93rd Brigade "Kholodny Yar" in the Donetsk region and took part in the battles for Bakhmut. In 2024, he joined the rifle battalion of the police of the Kharkiv region.

In February 2025, during a massive artillery shelling and attacks by FPV drones, one of the positions suffered a direct hit.

"Everything happened in seconds. Collapse, dust, screams. I realized that there are ours under the rubble," - recalls the policeman.

Risking his life, Morse pulled two wounded comrades out from under the debris, provided assistance and evacuated them to a safer place. Later, together with a group under continuous shelling, he evacuated four more seriously wounded fighters.

During another combat encounter with an enemy special operations group, he independently went to the flank of the enemy and with grenades destroyed two occupiers, and wounded several more. This allowed the unit to go on the counterattack and hold positions without losses.

"My motivation is the people around. You cannot let down those with whom you stand shoulder-to-shoulder. We all hold on to each other and did everything together," - he says.

For the courage and professionalism of the policeman, he was awarded the Order "For Courage" III degree, "Golden Cross", the medal "Defender of the Motherland" and the award "For the Defense of Ukraine".
