The message reads, in part:

“This is a great honour and recognition of your special merits, heroism and courage shown in defending the Fatherland and protecting the sovereignty and national interests of our country.

You can be justly proud of the history and legendary military traditions of your unit. In the most difficult areas – in the fight against terrorists in Syria, in performing peacekeeping tasks in Nagorno-Karabakh, and during the special military operation in Ukraine – the brigade invariably showed perseverance, courage, determination and strength of mind, and demonstrated brilliant examples of military duty.

I am convinced that you, soldiers and officers – guardsmen, will continue to be faithful to the Oath, serve the Fatherland with honour and your whole heart, and reliably ensure the safety and peaceful life of the citizens of Russia.”
