Ukraine

I'm not sure what the distinction is between "volunteer brigade" and UAF ... are you referring to the TDF? I thought they were under the purview of the UAF.


Regardless of how he got there, I'd seriously question whoever accepted him back into front line service

The video didn't specify which volunteer brigade he was a part of.

I think the more salient takeaway from this video is just how important being free from Russia is fo some Ukrainians. This guy is no exception. His beliefs were strong enough to a) tell his wife him joining UAF was "non negotiable and b) rejoin the fight after fitted with prosthetic. That's patriotism defined.

Does Ukraine have a problem finding fighters? I'm sure. Unfortunately they dont gave the luxury of mobilizing every convict, 55 yr old or paying multiple PMCs to fight. They don't have massive areas of some of the poorest people to entice with promises of 10x their average salary to go die on front line.

So is this video more of a Ukraine has a personnel problem or more of Ukraine has some real patriots willing to give their all?
