Evgenia Prokopenko abandoned the semblance of life as Miss Ukraine and joined the ranks of Ukrainian fighters in the war against Russia.
Evgenia, 35, went to the trenches 6 months ago as a paramedic to help Ukrainian forces and the murder scenes of her friends radically changed Miss Ukraine’s life in 2012.
Evgenia, who also runs a law firm, said: According to the Daily Star newspaper, she and her comrades recently liberated the city of Izyum from Russian occupation.
He added: “Before the war, I had my own business. My uniform was a work suit with heels.”
“But in war I wear uniforms and rudimentary military hats .. Here at the front I am a paramedic .. I evacuate the wounded from the combat zones .. I carry out first aid”.
And he continued: “If someone had told me 6 months ago that I would be in the army and sleep in the trenches, I would not have believed it.” Despite this transformation in his life, he still keeps a bag of makeup and perfume wherever it fits in his military bag.
