WIKIPEDIA: Glory to Ukraine (Ukrainian: Slava Ukrajini! Herojam slava!; translated as: Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!) is a commonly used greeting in Ukraine and slogan.
According to Volodymyr Viatrovych, the phrase 'Slava Ukrayini!" (Glory to Ukraine!) first appeared in the Black Zaporozhtsi Cavalry Regiment, an armed unit of the UNR Army, which fought for the independence of Ukraine in 1918-1920. It became part of the Ukrainian lexicon in 1920, which, despite popular fallacy, was long before the OUN and UPA movements started. In his monumental book Kholodny Yar, Yuriy Horlis-Horskyi writes that he heard this phrase from several insurgents, who fought in the Kholodny Yar Ukrainian partisan movement (1918-1923). They routinely greeted each other with the phrase 'Slava Ukrayini!", and the response had to be 'Ukrayini Slava!" (which also means "Glory to Ukraine" but with words swapped around).
