More and more Western mercs are running for their lives. Snip:

“Prozorov elaborated that foreign mercenaries complain about the incompetence of the Ukrainian command, their cowardice and betrayal, as fighters were thrown into useless attacks and “meat grinds” under Russian artillery.”

The former Ukrainian officer also pointed out that at least several hundred Neo-Nazis from all over the world came to fight for Kiev.

    Be really careful exposing yourself to stuff like that. You can actually give yourself like a kind of second-hand ptsd. You might just have a terrible day or week after you see it or it might pop into your head randomly years after. Recovery depends on what you see, how much you see, time, all sorts of stuff. Some people handle it “better” (to use a slightly inappropriate word to describe it.) But, you might temporarily become numb to it and then it hits like a brick when the memory is quite literally triggered back to the fore of your mind.
