A Ukrainian recruit speaks:
We are ordinary
We are ordinary… utterly unremarkable. It’s as if someone took a large container of people, sifted out all the exceptional ones, and brought the rest - the ordinary folks - to our barracks.
My platoon is a mix of everyday professionals: an IT specialist, a welder, an electrician, a window company owner, a yoga instructor, an air conditioning store manager, a dump truck driver, a boat captain, a doctoral student, an engineer who designed ore factories, and many others.
We eat porridge, swear, dislike Zelenskyy (or curse Poroshenko), struggle through marching drills in the scorching heat, run endlessly, and groan through morning exercises.
There are no heroes here, no Schwarzeneggers, no Harvard boys, no patriotic orators, no super-soldiers. We’re simply Ukrainian soldiers, learning the craft of warfare. We learn how to kill. We try to do it well, but it happens as it happens.
These are the only soldiers you'll get. There will always be ordinary soldiers, and they will carry out their difficult military duties. No one else will do it for them.
Accept us and love us as we are. Unshaven, dirty, sweaty, exhausted, angry and irritable.
I'm uncertain about our future. My beliefs have been shaken. Yet, I know that today at evening formation, we held a minute of silence that made the air resonate, followed by a thunderous “Glory to the Heroes” that echoed across the vast steppe. It wasn't forced; it came from deep within us, from the heart and soul.
If you’ve lost faith in God or the devil, in victory, or in miracles, believe in the men and women standing guard in these steppes. There are no other gods. There are only ordinary people. Keep them in your thoughts and prayers. If they vanish, everything will vanish with them.

Charlie Brown pilots a badly damaged B-17 over German skies ... Franz Zigler did not shoot them down in his BF-109, but escorted them to safety
And then of course, we have Snoopy & the Red Baron ...

True story!
Though so far, X wont let it go past my own profile
Over the weekend US VP Vance & SoW Hegseth attended the Marines' 250th anniversary celebration at Camp Pendleton California. The events included a live artillery fire exercise over a major highway. The California governor closed the highway, a move rudely criticized by the White House & the governor's California political rival
A police car & a police motorcycle on the highway were hit by shrapnel
It's not known if Mr Vance & Mr Hegseth successfully completed weapons safety training during their military time
