Formal UGG-NCR meetings for this season follows our traditional approach of being convened on the fourth Tuesday of each month, with the exception of December where there we will not be any meeting. Meetings will also be suspended for the summer months of June, July and August. Start time is 7:30 PM (Eastern) unless otherwise noted.
Since the start of January 2020, the UGG-NCR’s formal monthly meetings have been delivered as on-line “Webinars” rather than in-person presentations / discussions.

“Будь Козаком – Be a Cossack: My Cossack Ancestry ” by Col. Viktor Siromakha
The UGG-NCR often presents military themes for its November meetings. This year, Col. Viktor Siromakha described his family’s Cossack roots, as well as the military tradition of Cossacks defending Ukrainian nationhood over the centuries. This presentation also touched upon the modern Ukrainian military.
Col. Siromakha is the Defence Attaché with the Ukrainian Embassy of Canada in Ottawa.
