New life for Giulia Schiff, the 24-year-old who five years ago was the protagonist of the controversial "baptism of flight" in the swimming pool of the Latina air force base and who had been fighting in Ukraine for months.
The young ex-pilot from Venice   she got married and gave up her camouflage: from the beginning of the war alongside the troops of Kiev , she fought in various territories, from Donbass to Karkhiv, but now she has stopped fighting and has founded a charity organization to support militia.

Battle name "Kida", enlisted by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense in the ground forces and special forces units, in the front line for reconnaissance missions and in mechanized infantry on tanks, is now in Dnipro where she lives with Victor , 29 year old Israeli -Ukrainian whom he had met last May in the foreign legion and whom he married yesterday in a civil marriage.

«He had to stop for health reasons, due to the damage suffered by the pressure of the bombs in several episodes. To be close to him, in November I gave up everything and went back to him – she explains -. But we have not stopped going to the front. Now we have founded a charity organization. It's called 'Cloud Walker', it brings aid to soldiers, hospitals and even elderly people without food who are camped near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. And there are many other projects in the pipeline, such as creating a mobile hospital and setting up an orphanage. All this thanks to a humanitarian fund.

In May Giulia and Victor will return to Italy for a few days, to Verona : «We will have the religious ceremony of our wedding and I will wear the white dress».

In 2018 as a student of the Academy of Pozzuoli she had reported that she had been a victim of mobbing and hazing, for example for that flight baptism filmed in a video in which slaps and whippings are seen. A goliardic tradition which, however, that day, according to his words, would have taken a different turn.

In 2021 the Council of State had rejected his appeal, confirming the definitive expulsion from the Air Force. She maintained that the real exclusion from the Corps was not the absence of military and professional aptitude but precisely the fact that she had denounced the hazing acts.
