The author provides a short analysis of the scientific researches, related with the role and meaning of the field priesthood of the Galician Army in 1918-1920. Main attention is paid to the studies of modern native scholars, that were published after the independence of Ukraine had been declared, for example – Ya. Hrytsak, D. Zabzaliuk, O. Krasivskyi, M. Lytvyn, V. Marchuk, O. Pavlyshyn, V. Futuluichuka. A significance role of the experience of pastoral service in the Legion of Ukrainian Sich Riflemen and its deployment in Ukrainian Galician Army are considered in the article. The author came to the conclusion that the relations between state and church in West Ukraine should be scrutinized as a so-called tandem. In this alliance the leaders of the West Ukrainian People’s Republic supported the development of Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church and whereas clergy assisted in Ukrainian state-building.
