Ukraïns'kyi invalid («Український інвалід»; Ukrainian Invalid). An irregular magazine published by the Ukrainian Association of Disabled Veterans in Kalisz, Poland, in 1923 and in 1926–31. As an organ of the veteran organization that united disabled soldiers of the Army of the Ukrainian National Republic in Poland, it aimed to provide information useful for its members. The magazine reported on the activities of the association and its work to improve the position of UNR Army soldiers, and informed disabled men about their rights, benefits, and related government decrees. It published news from Ukraine, articles on political issues, stories about lived experiences of war disability, and literary works by Ukrainian writers. Volodymyr Rohoza (1923) and Mykhailo Sadovsky (1926–31) served as editors, and 31 issues of Ukraïns'kyi invalid were published in total. In 1930, the organ’s print run was 500 copies. In 1937–9 a quarterly journal with the same title was published in Lviv by the Ukrainian Invalids’ Aid Society.
