Hennadiy Vehera, call sign “Zeleny”, was killed with his mate when their BRDM-2 hit a mine near Pisky, Donetsk Oblast on January 10, 2018. The vehicle was crossing a river… the blast was so powerful that vehicle parts were scattered over 200 meters.
Hennadiy was born in the village of Kurylivka, Khmelnytsky Oblast on May 10, 1980. He served in the 34th Battalion of the 57th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade.
Hennadiy graduated from college in Poltava. In 1998-2000, he served in the 3rd SpecialOps Regiment in Crimea, and during the next 6 years - in a special paramilitary unit. When war broke out, Hennadiy volunteered and went to fight in Horlivka in May 2014. In March 2015, he was sent to the 128th Brigade in Kramatorsk to guard the headquarters. He was seriously wounded in the legs in Luhansk Oblast. After treatment and rehab, he served as a security officer, escorting military doctors along the contact line. He was on the frontline again in the autumn of 2016, and in May 2017, he returned to the 34th Battalion near Donetsk Airport.
Hennadiy leaves behind his grieving wife and three daughters.
