UK mil trained merc back from #Ukraine talks about his experience:

The absolute lack of training for mercenaries and sheer chaos in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - a former British officer about the Ukrainian army

A mercenary from the UK, and a former Navy officer, told how he went to Ukraine, and what came of it. According to him, there were many other "soldiers of fortune" from the UK, former military from the Navy, infantry, special forces, even from aviation. The vast majority are over 30 years old, but there were also 20-year-old youths who played enough of computer games like "Call of Duty" and decided to try themselves in a real war.

The British mercenary says that even people with experience in other armed conflicts were powerless in the face of what they saw in Ukraine: the absolute lack of training for mercenaries before being sent to the front and chaos in the ranks of the Ukrainian army.

"Even guys with experience from Afghanistan and Iraq were not ready for the war that is happening in Ukraine."
