This can only happen in the movies

The certificate saved the border guard's life

On the northern outskirts of Vovchansk, a border soldier on the pseudo "Tikhon" received numerous injuries in close combat with Muscovites.

Brothers immediately evacuated the defender from the battlefield and took him to the hospital.

Several bullets went through, breaking the bones of both legs, and one that could have been fatal, but the bullet was stopped by the ID of a serviceman of the DPS of Ukraine.

Conclusion - the certificate should always be carried with you.

That's accurate. A buddy of mine was wearing ceramic plates in his carrier in Afghanistan and was shot at close range with an AK47. First and second round shattered the ceramic, second went through the kevlar, but not much more. Third and fourth rounds went right through his abdomen.
