Fearless Guardian

WHAT IS FEARLESS GUARDIAN?

Fearless Guardian is the name given to the U.S. training and equipping of the National Guard of Ukraine under the Congress-approved Global Security Contingency Fund-Ukraine.

At the request of the Ukrainian government, approximately paratroopers from the U.S. Army Europe’s 173rd Airborne Brigade are in Yavoriv, Ukraine training 300 soldiers from the newly-formed National Guard.

The training is focused at partnering at the battalion-level and below, building a professional and capable Ukrainian National Guard to defend Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
