I’m getting ready to leave in couple of weeks
![rusty571 · 3 days ago · edited 2 days ago I'm getting ready to leave in couple of weeks. Your post about not joining the legion is deleted to read why we shouldn't. (Retired combat soldier) Edit: I've just read your comments. Stay strong. 25 Reply Give Award Share Report Save Follow pondering_time · 2 days ago I'm not OP but let me just say this: Know you're going to into a warzone where you are not the dominant force. I know reddit wants everyone to think Ukraine is winning this war and Russia is incompetent and incapable but the reality is people are still dying. You're going somewhere that won't provide you the kind of the protection your government's military would have provided you when you were out in combat zones The Ukrainian government is a corrupt mess and their own soldiers aren't getting all the support they could be offered, so joining the legion will be even worse in that sense I'm not saying not to go, do as you please. I'm just saying reddit is painting a very different picture of what is actually going on over there and I think it's important for people to realize that. There's nothing pretty about it, if you go give a Russian soldier sunflower seeds you'll probably be shot Reply Give Award Share Report Save Follow](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/masonry/002/329/283/575.jpg)

![Left the legion. Some are staying to help refugees - some going home. But it is clear that going to Kviv with the legion is nearly a f------ death sentence. A medic died the day after he got to the front, another guy tried shooting an AK at an APC and was killed immediately, a 10 man team was nearly wiped out - 8 killed and 2 crawled away.
