Before coming to Ukraine, I had experience serving in the Marine Corps, worked in a private security company, participated in various operations. The great injustice that Russia has done to Ukraine motivated me to come here.
Don’t come for the adventure – come only for the conviction, believing that you are doing the right thing. Respect the country you are going to, respect the people who are responsible for you, respect your commander.
On your trip to Ukraine, I recommend that you don’t take too many things with you. Take a couple of changes of clothes and underwear and a couple of sets of socks. After you sign the contract, you will be given all the necessary things, equipment and comfortable shoes.
There is an atmosphere of great brotherhood in the Ukrainian army. We are all fighting for the same cause – human dignity and justice. We fight for what is right.
There is not much free time in military service. When it appears, I recommend learning the Ukrainian language and doing physical training, for example, going for a run. You can get distracted a little, but the main thing is to always be ready.
I think it is very important to learn the language of the country where you are, so that there is no language barrier. In my opinion, Ukrainian is not a very difficult language to learn, especially when you are dealing with Ukrainian brothers and sisters. Communicating with them allows you to learn quickly.
Glory to Ukraine!
