The image depicts an outdoor memorial monument dedicated to the border guards of Tyumen Oblast, located in the city of Tyumen, Russia. The monument, constructed from light gray, speckled granite, features an irregular, multifaceted diamond-like shape. At the apex of the monument, two horizontal black plaques are affixed. The topmost plaque reads "СССР - РОССИЯ" (USSR - RUSSIA). Below it, a second plaque states "ХРАНИТЬ ДЕРЖАВУ - ДОЛГ И ЧЕСТЬ" (TO PROTECT THE STATE - DUTY AND HONOR). Centered on the monument's main face is a large, black rectangular panel with a white inscription at the top: "ПОГРАНИЧНИКАМ ТЮМЕНСКОЙ ОБЛАСТИ" (TO THE BORDER GUARDS OF TYUMEN OBLAST). This panel features a stylized map outlining the Tyumen Oblast region within Russia, marking cities such as Москва (Moscow), Салехард (Salekhard), Тюмень (Tyumen), and Ханты-Мансийск (Khanty-Mansiysk). Various illustrations are etched onto the map: a helicopter (Mil Mi-8/Mi-17 type) in the upper left, a border guard with a German Shepherd dog next to a border post in the lower left, a border surveillance tower in the upper right, an armored personnel carrier (APC) in the lower center, and a patrol boat (with hull number "043") in the lower right. The map also includes the text "Государственная граница священна и неприкосновенна" (The state border is sacred and inviolable). Below the main map panel, another black plaque bears the dedication: "Солдатский долг исполнен ими свято, ценою жизни выполнен приказ. Лишь об Отчизне думали ребята, в свой скорбный и последний час." (Their soldier's duty was sacredly fulfilled, the order executed at the cost of life. The young men thought only of the Fatherland in their sorrowful and final hour.) Embedded into the granite monument's sides are metallic emblems and medals. On the left side, a Soviet star-shaped medal (likely the Order of the Red Star) is visible above a rectangular military medal. On the right side, a cross-like medal with a patterned ribbon is positioned above a shield-shaped emblem featuring a hammer and sickle, a star, and a sword, emblematic of Soviet border guard insignia. At the base of the monument, three black rectangular plaques are horizontally aligned, each listing names with ranks (e.g., Рядовой - Private, Ст. лейтенант - Senior Lieutenant, Капитан - Captain, Майор - Major, Мл. сержант - Junior Sergeant, Прапорщик - Warrant Officer, Сержант - Sergeant) in white text. These names represent fallen border guards. The monument is situated on a paved area
