My name is Dark. I am a tactical training instructor in Ukraine’s Defense Forces. I’m a former soldier who previously worked in coastal security and operated in high-risk zones.

In 2022, I came to Ukraine to help in the fight for freedom. From humanitarian aid to frontline combat, I have worked alongside Ukrainian and foreign fighters. I was seriously wounded in battle, but after recovery, I returned—to train volunteers ready to defend Ukraine.

Former soldier Knight shares how meeting Ukrainian warriors during training inspired him to join the Defense Forces of Ukraine. He is now actively learning the Ukrainian language, symbolizing his desire to fully integrate into the common cause.

A Story of Courage and Advice for Future Volunteers – Foreign Volunteer Thomas ("Krakov") Speaks

"If someone wants to join the Ukrainian forces – know that you will be trained from scratch to full combat readiness," says Polish volunteer Thomas (callsign "Krakov"). We present to you an exclusive interview with a volunteer defending Ukraine.

He left a comfortable life in the United Kingdom to become part of Ukraine’s defense. In this video, Thomas shares how, just days after the war began, he decided to leave his career as a manager at one of London’s most expensive restaurants to become a volunteer fighting for Ukraine’s freedom.

His strongest impression after crossing the border was the warm welcome and kindness of the local people who helped him in the beginning. Thomas describes his training at the military range and how he soon found himself defending Kyiv—first as part of the Georgian Legion, then in the "Carpathian Sich" battalion.

Unexpectedly, Thomas became a combat medic and a trainer for new recruits. He gives a detailed account of the challenges of warfare: living in basements, intense training, and the importance of teamwork, discipline, and communication.

Thomas addresses those who wish to join the Ukrainian forces: "Remember—discipline, teamwork, and communication are everything. You will be provided with everything necessary for battle."

He urges volunteers not to stay silent when something is lacking but to openly ask commanders for help and always tell the truth—because lives depend on it, both their own and their comrades'.

Watch the video to hear Thomas’s inspiring story and learn why the Ukrainian army is one of the strongest in Europe today. If you feel the call to fight for freedom, join the ranks of Ukraine’s defenders and become part of this shared cause!

I am Toretto, a Colombian who came to Ukraine thanks to a friend. I have experience serving in the Colombian army, and now I am a soldier in the Ukrainian Defense Forces. Here I was accepted as a native, and I feel like a part of this nation.

I am Luis Ortiz, from Colombia. When the war started, I decided to join the Ukrainian army, having military experience. The training is at a high level, and the army is very professional. Anyone who wants to help can join and get a contract and opportunities for development.
