Hi all.
I hope I don't offend anyone or get into any trouble over this but I found this interview on Lindybeige's YouTube channel really interesting. It's an interview with a British guy talking about his experiences as a volunteer serving in Ukraine. Lots of great soldier-stories and observations about what equipment he found most useful (wet-wipes!) etc. I think it's a valid resource for anyone wanting to know what being a soldier is like in a chaotic situation without the usual home comforts, plus it has some useful anecdotes that could be used as plot hooks.

Apart from anything, this guy is funny as hell and a real joy to listen to.
