The memorial is dedicated to the people of Podillia who died in Afghanistan and other local wars. A granite hemisphere representing a globe is installed on a cylindrical pedestal made of red marble. On it, a huge hand as if playing chess rearranges the figure of a warrior ready to rush into battle. The sculptural composition is made of bronze, consists of a life-size figure of a soldier who had taken an oath and must carry out an order; and the surreal dimensions of the ruler's hand.

There is an inscription engraved on the monument: The rulers make mistakes - people suffer.

The authors of the monument are ukrainian folk artists, father and son, Mykola and Bohdan Mazur. The monument was unveiled in September 2002.
