Denys "Redis" Prokopenko is the god of war
"Redis" is the god of war, he is a great man. A man about whom I have never heard anything bad. This is an example, a mentor, a motivator who shows by his own example how to move correctly. Whenever he spoke "Redis", I always got goosebumps. Because he knew what kind of person he was, how great he was. Simply, so to speak, "Redis" is "Redis".
"Buffalo"
Senior Sergeant of the Azov NGU brigade
According to "Buffalo", the Azovians have a tradition: they do not hang a chevron on a warrior, because it is not a burden, but only nailed.
The senior sergeant recalls: when "Redis" nails the chevron, the full power of the "Azov" commander is immediately felt.
Therefore, when "Redis" nails, you feel yourself swaying to the left side from the force of his blow. It is right. You start to appreciate it.
We will remind that the commander of the "Azov" brigade, Denys "Redis" Prokopenko, became a volunteer for the defense of Ukraine in 2014. In March 2022, he was awarded the title of "Hero of Ukraine" when, together with his comrades, he fought in Mariupol and defended in "Azovstal".
