A U.S. Army veteran who served in Iraq is now volunteering in Ukraine’s fight against Russia, training troops before they head to the front lines in defense of their country.

"These are ordinary civilians who, 1776 style, have decided to answer their nation’s call to duty," the Army veteran, who talked to Fox News on condition of anonymity due to concerns for his safety, said

the Army veteran, who talked to Fox News on condition of anonymity

I don't believe the story, but even if I did, why would a veteran of the 20 year military catastrophe that was Iraq & Afghanistan believe he was qualified to train anyone in military tactics?

They are unwittingly fighting to advance the agenda of Biden and other one-worlders who are no better than Putin.

Becauae the failures in those countries was not due to tactics.

Fighting for the Ukes while your own country is being invaded and overrun by foreign nationals seems pretty retarded to me. Not what I’d call “1776 style”.

The story must be coming directly from the Ministry for Disinformation.

I hear the mad dog barking of a Log Cabin neocon. Lighten up Francis. I have no problem with an American with valuable skill going the benighted foreign lands for big coin but that doesn't make him an automatic hero.

Notice how your dear leader has been invisible lately. He is comatose, on his death bed. Hopefully, he got too much anaesthesia during his bowel cancer operation. Whoopsie daisy!

When Putin dies, his Ukraine war dies.

A younger relative served over there. Believe me, you would not want him on the other side in a shooting war.
