I am especially pleased that so many women, so many strong individuals, are taking on this challenge and becoming part of the Border Guard. Please accept my congratulations and gratitude for ensuring order and security, professionalism, and dedication to service," said Pomeranian Voivode Beata Rutkiewicz.
