Jan "Sully" Heřmánek stated that on September 28, he received, together with Josef Starý, the Order of Merit of the I. degree from the Military Office of the President of the Republic. The award was presented to them by General Radek Hasala, the head of the office, at the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Kyiv. Heřmánek wrote that receiving the award on Czech Statehood Day, which he also connected with the establishment of the Czechoslovak legions, held special significance for him. He thanked the Military Office and Hasala and noted that he perceived the award as recognition of long-term work for Ukraine and the security of the Czech Republic. Although the cross bore his name, Heřmánek claimed that he considered it an award for the entire Team4Ukraine team, its supporters, partners, and donors. He added that the award was not an end to his work, but rather a commitment to continue, and he labeled assistance to Ukraine as an investment in the security of the Czech Republic. #ČeskáRepublika #Ukrajina #Hrdost (translated)
