By decision of the commander of a military unit, the head of a unit, body, institution or institution of the SBU, leave may also be granted to other servicemen (however, no more than three) who took a direct part in the detection or destruction of enemy equipment.

Confirmation of the destroyed equipment is a log of combat operations, a commanderʼs report and a video recording. The date, time, method and type of destroyed equipment must be specified in the report.
