I really liked the interviews with Rob.
Salt of the earth. I really like your solo content & interviews. Just sayin’ But yea you make any conversation better. Keep up the good work, I look forward to each video. You, hromadske and Sean Odinson are my top channels. I want to like more content from my own country but it’s commonly a bit flashy coming from here. 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 🏴 I’m glad you don’t have a Howard stern radio show horn like that L S a business. I appreciate you Keep it real. No commercials no cheerleading. Respect
Thank you for the work and time great content
how about you interview someone on the other side and get the full picture from people who live in the donbass and what they've been going through for the last 8 years?
I’m a classic liberal (think American Founders) with conservative social values and libertarian economic values. A longtime student of history, esp of Western Civilization, I find the corruption in Ukraine and Russia appalling, though many Western countries are holding their own in this regard these days. America First is a view I share. However, defending innocent civilians is another. For decades have I dreamed of a world where it’s not tolerated… by enough nations to serve as a deterrent.
The justification he gave is the reason for my opposition to Russia’s cause, too. If the United States were to target innocent civilians? Shit. Some things are supposed to be simple. This is one. I was a kid once. I had a good upbringing in relative peace and security and, though I didn’t understand while young, it was never free. Well, people speak of human rights. LIFE, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? The order of these is no accident.
I’m immensely grateful for the costs endured by those who have fought against tyranny and evil, in the past and today. My respect for you both is off the chart, mate. 🇺🇸🍻🇦🇺
Thanks for sharing. What I would love is peace. “Can’t we all just get along?” Thousands of years say no, but attacking children is horse shit in any century. 🙏🏻🫵🏻
He’s got an incredible story, so glad you had a chance to talk to him
let's see pt 4 🤝

Love you bro
Ukraine war is a circus show for abunch of clowns 🤡🖕
@@CivDiv thus far we can see his ass getting beat badly, the price for being oblivious to facts and reality!
Just for reference for those civilian folks who don't know, when Josh talks about the "ccp" he's talking about the casualty collection point, which is where units establish their initial medical field centers to treat wounded before moving them further to the rear. I figure that was pretty obvious to most, but just in case someone was confused, I thought I'd help out. Have a nice day.
Not Chinese communist party. Got it
Chinese Communist Party is not in Ukraine
@@weslegna I had to actively think "it obviously means something else" as he was saying it. I may be a navy brat, but I didn't absorb _all_ of the acronyms haha I was lost at first, I can't lie lol
Ccp can be anything from a medical tent to a few riflemen in a back room.
Hear it a ton in any WW2 media. Band of Brothers and Company of Heroes come to mind.
A russian artilleryman has 0 concept of where his shell lands. That you don't understand this is incredible stupidity on both your parts.
The artilleryman is told what shell to put in the breach, a powder charge, an elevation number, an azimuth number, and then to fire. I was an F.O. so I know this info.
As some rando with no military background, after watching just a half dozen of your interviews with foreign fighters in Ukraine, I can say with confidence that I made the right choice in cutting down on my drinking instead of heading to Ukraine.
Glad u didn't fucking go as an alcoholic you'd have had caused casualties including urself. I went fought for almost a year got injured with shrapnel thru shin and stomach. Luckily no organ hit. Came back to us and mom gets diagnosed with stage 4 pancreas. God knew a good woman needed help in her last 2 months and that I am so greatful. And if the war isn't over by time my father dies I will be back however as my own history needs to stop rhyming asap as I am a Bosnian genocide survivor and hate knowing Ukrainians are suffering like my own mother, sister and brother did in the 90s
Thank you, Willy, for finding these guys and conducting these interviews. This is incredibly important work, laying the foundations of historical record. History.
Good to see you're still around man.

Yeah, seeing just how dumb young men can be fighting in a war they don’t understand and getting no money for it . Next level stupidity
If course wignats like you love this, he is literally a gay porn star and a war criminal
Many of them been trained by NATO so it makes sense that their mimicking NATO tactics
They are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in the game of power and 💵💵 by BANKERS..💯💯
He brags a little too much about how they are better than the Russians, especially because he fought in the Kharkiv Oblast, where they fought against a smaller pro-Russian army, which consisted of the local population, who wanted to help the Russians re-establish democracy in Ukraine and remove the fascist regime, which mercilessly liquidates Russian-speaking civilians. Officially in Ukraine, if you don't support the fascist regime, you can be imprisoned for 15 years, but when they took power in the Kharkiv region, they even filmed themselves slaughtering the local population, and those who fled from them to Russia say that Americans and other foreigners also supported the fascist genocide against the Russian-speaking population.
@Daniel Rodriguez Don't believe the fascist propagandists, because they don't even admit that the regions in Ukraine had the right to secede according to their constitution, if they or their culture were threatened.
@@kosarkosar7683 In Russia you can't call the 'special operation' a war on pain of potentially up to 15 years in prison. You're just a Russian bot though, you and I both know that you're a liar. Enjoy your Rubles.
@@kosarkosar7683 EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS A LIE!
Adrenaline and morphine shots are the greatest gift at the most crucial moment. I can't imagine having neither.
I remember that feeling of wanting to fall asleep, the pain was too much. Idk what happens if you sleep but luckily someone found me in time to wake me up. In a warzone that'd be so freaking insane!
This guy is so sad to see. I think it's safe to say that this guy was broken in either Iraq or Afghanistan and is unable to assimilate back into society in a functional way so he's on the war path, wherever that war is. If he weren't in Ukraine, he'd be "freedom fighting" somewhere else. I've several friends like this, and coming back from intense combat where they experience unimaginable terrors, they really are like junkies trying to recover. Getting these guys the help they need should be the primary responsibility of the DOD, instead they're being encouraged to serve as mercenaries in these proxy wars doing the foreign policy bidding of the US, with none of the benefits or commitments. I wish this guy the best, but it seems he's on a fixed path and won't stop until he finds that goal...
If he doesn't change his mind he'll be dead soon if not crippled first. Maybe he imagines he'll be remembered as a hero.
@@bubbajones6907 With all the talk of Russia using conscripts as cannon fodder, I can't even count the number of videos I've seen of western mercenaries being driven to the front lines while under intense fire in some junky little car then being told to GTFO. I'd imagine most wind up dead or wounded but we'll never know because there is no interest in reporting those statistics.
🙄🤡
@@warpspacetime Nice projection.
That’s pretty cynical
Thank you for the objectivity in these interviews, Willy! As a Ukrainian, I feel that we really need this unbiased perspective for the world to see this war for what it is. No propaganda bullshit on either side, just real accounts. Thank you!
Only talking to Ukrainians is your bias. Get some Russians on.
Где вы тут углядели объективность? Чувак откровенно занимает проукраинскую позицию и пересказывает телевизор, буча буряты , буряты буча. Украинцы белые и пушистые а по Донецку 8 лет лупили русские.

Great interview style mate. Top notch stuff 👌
Thanks for the variety of voices you interview, Willy. I'm just an average guy struggling to untangle all the narratives and moral hazards. Your channel, more than any other I've found, remains objective and purely informational. I salute your delivery of real journalism.
The Ukraine WAR is just another BANKERS war.. 💯💯
If you want more raw combat, visit Civ Div’s channel(sorry if you already have. He has some of Josh’s combat footage(including him hitting a BMP with a rocket) as well as his own. Great channel.
I see a lot of people talking about the moral ambiguity of this war;however I dont see that.
Ukraine is a sovereign country. Russia invaded and then annexed its cities. Russia has razed cities, bombed civilian targets, and is arguably engaged in a genocide.
Ukraine is not a perfect country and their tactics are questionable. I would argue a lot of the issues (corruption, indiscriminate waste of life) are relics of the USSR. Ukraine is in transition and is working towards learning western value and culture.
@@dbcooper6543 I'd argue you have near 0 clue what you're talking about
@@dbcooper6543 I whole heartedly agree with your take that’s why every American soldier and contractor that was killed in Iraq had it coming and it’s a shame more couldn’t be killed but at least and average of 22 American veterans commit suicide daily.
Love these interviews with soldiers. They are so informative on what's going on.
They are also the reason why Ukraine doesn't want these type of lone ranger foreign soldiers going in because they come out the other end completely breaching OPSEC as seen here. Lacking integrity.
Respect to Josh..and of course Willy! Keep it coming..thanks for your time and effort.
Obviously nowhere comparable, but when my lung collapsed I got surgery in one hospital but had to be transfered to a different hospital an hour away after my surgery. One of the most painful things I remember is being on the highway in the back of an ambulance with a plastic tube in my chest (to drain air and blood from around the collapsed lung) and I could feel it inside my chest and inside the opening in my ribs it was fed through with every small bounce on the road.
So glad to you are on the road to recovery. Been trying to follow your squad and missions in Ukraine. Keep safe m8. I did wonder why several of the teams are picsulated and other are not. John in NZ
I've watched this guy fight in the videos from civ and I'm blown away by this dude and the way these guys are fighting.
Yeah, the aggression was great! I wonder if the spetz that dismounted and got engaged in that building they fragged called in the artillery as a danger close fire mission?
It won't save them. None of them will come home. Everyone will be killed. They went up against people who are cooler, stronger and smarter than them.
Willy you may not realize it but you are doing INCREDIBLE work for future history. Never before so we have combat footage online and videos from the veterans. This interview and other like it may very well be used in studies 100 years from now. This is important work thank you.
most of these ukraine-russo war videos are a load of crap
@@alexcope8142 not they’re not. They’re primary source mostly so they may miss other perspectives but this is bonafide gold for the future. Especially as second source materials are written using these as references to get us a better overall picture.

Should do a follow up interview now with this guy. When it has come to light that he was part of the group that supposedly executed surrendering Russian spetnaz. Was he really wounded by a artillery blast or was it the massive firefight that ensued after one of the squad leaders executed the surrendering Russian?
Naughty, naughty -- talking about facts no one wants to here. You should have a thousand "thumbs up" for speaking the truth;" instead, you've got eight after FOUR DAYS. 👍
@@HegelsOwl to be clear. I am 100% on Ukraine's side in this conflict. Russia is the aggressor here. But war is shit and it attracts bad apples, especially among war tourists or "freedom fighters" as they like to call themselves.
@ SwedishVilsten Allow me to be perfectly clear: What I stated has nothing to do with "the side you're on." You happen to be on the wrong side, and it's still not relevant.
They should be asked this for sure. i've also seen the account of Eyugenero. Just goes to show you, how many more things are we being told that are not truthful.
First of all ive never really heard of Russian Spetsnaz units who surrender, so id b slow to say things that havent been proven yet in my opinion!!
Thanks again for a good interview 👍
Is this part 2 of the interview? If not, would be nice to start off with a brief explanation of who is talking, what his background/experience is and what brought him to Ukraine.
part2. talking to his friends after funeral...🤣
Yes some opening questions about his background and training would help.
@@user-zv4kt9ig8y go to civ dub channel, watch the 3 part series of them wiping spetnaz in building, dude running around with rocket back pack is this guy. Before that there’s video of them titled accidentally dragging spetnaz and not knowing, and before that one a video of them taking out a bmr with NLAWs/javs
That latest gopro footage on @CivDiv channel is from Josh?
This guy is a friend of Civ Div, they were on the same patrol I think.
Good interview, thank you for bringing this content to us. I don't agree with all your points and what was said, but it is good to hear what people are thinking.
When asked if he is going back to fight the Russians.."ofcorse" is the immediate answer, "this war is still going"
Thank you God, for the sake of freedom, that you create men like Josh
He fights for genocidal money and a lot of blood money he gets for it. He's the opposite of a hero, he's a monster and the enemy of freedom and life.
There are scores of people like Josh fertilizing Ukrainian soil for US military industrial complex.

This is the guy from CIV DIV's video !
Great video Matt!
Just saw his footage with civ div. My guy puts in work.
Inspiring interview and glad to see he survived. With that said, with his ethos about the crime of invading a sovereign nation being categorically wrong, and something that people are obligated to defend against also goes a long way to explaining the insurgencies in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Serbia and so forth. Truly the invaders of any nation should be fair game.
Glad you're alive dude. Thanks for all you have done.
Great interview, Willie
The Team in Civ Div's videos...damn sorry to hear they lost their lives ( 7:21 ) edit: 5-6 injured and 1 killed.
He said they are still with him, I have no idea if that's a figure of speech or not. All injured or all lives lost?

The guy filming got huge artillery shrapnel through his jaw. Super fucked. Seems to be walking around now though.
The guy a couple of days ago wasnt anywhere near as optomistic as this guy.
Good interview!
20:07 about the BMP. The front of a BMP will absolutely eat RPGs and even 25mm from a Bradley. HOWEVER, the sides and ass won’t stop a .50 cal. That said, it’s a lot easier said than done to flank one. Plus, RPGs aren’t super effective anymore. Really gotta get a good angle but a mobility kill (taking out the tracks) is certainly possible.
Is this one of the soldiers from the recent Civ Div videos?
Yes i think it was their Team captain
I hope Josh is doing fine, its been 7 months since he posted on instagram
Excellent conversation
I'm an Australian Vietnam veteran and, from my observations, most wars tend to be thrown by people who expect to make a lot of money out of it, but we're the ones put in harm's way.
The vast majority of people everywhere would rather get on with each other. However, there are a relatively few people who massively profit from us not getting on and they're the ones running things. We're just the disposable cannon fodder.
BTW, every nation has its cultural narrative, its own story of who we are and what we stand for, and, without exception, they are fabrications. Ours assures us we have democracy, government of the people, by the people, for the people, but you'd have to be blind, deaf and dumb to not notice the massive corporate influence on our govt. What we have is govt of the people, by and for the corporations. It shouldn't be hard to work out which corporations are enriched by war, those weapons aren't going to sell themselves.
Beware of our own regimes' propaganda, particularly any encouraging us to war.
Too bad these young generation are brain washed by the media about spreading democracy, freedom, and liberty when in fact its to enrich the banks, WEF, industrial military complex etc. Blood for Money over and over again.
@@whoguy4231 We're being thoroughly played in this scam by the owners of the finest democracies and mainstream media money can buy, who simply dismiss anyone challenging their narrative as conspiracy theorists. But it's not a conspiracy, that would suggest it's hidden and it's not. The evidence is right there in front of us, hidden in plain sight and our non-democratic political system is a masterclass in misdirection.
This extremely accomplished scam has been in development for centuries, the wealthy have always run everything, including the mainstream narrative.
@@earthwizz Very true. Thank You for your service despite what the truth is. I do hope more can wake up from the slumber and say NO we want peace and friendship.
100%
Iam in full agreement, the young fellow in the interview has a lot to learn, hopefully his luck won't run out. I have realised what we have is managed democracies even in my country Australia, sadly a satellite state of the USA.
U should have these guys talk about their stories more. Like what happened while they were there/how they got there. Not just ask questions. Save that for the end.
Excellent suggestion, more backstory before and upon their arrival into Ukraine would help set up the interview.
Good interview, thank you
31:00 - "(Only a 1/6th or 1/7th of the USA defense budget is going to Ukraine)... its not much really."
2 companies in the world made 100B in a year. Two. Instead of using that money for good, we are using it for Slavs to go eliminate themselves for a piece of ground that means nothing to Americans. It is sad to see a brave young man sacrifice himself to the island of ideals and the egos of Victoria Nuland and the Z man.
Sadly, things that happened before Russian invasion is often forgotten.
like what? the russian militia shooting down a malaysian boeing and killing 300+ civilian?
@@tw0million lol that's one of them plus the 2 revolutionary movements that was used against Ukrainian people. The Euromaidan would have worked out if the US backed government didn't make a coup d'etat and basically sniped any civilian at the protests along with the security forces.
@@marywiza I think it did work out, no? if it didn’t then the president would have ended up being Putin’s lapdog like Luka. If Russia didn’t try to meddle in Ukrnian politics there wouldn’t have been an Euromaidan. Also, snipers were Russian, I think that’s what you’re saying.
The deal that USA got out of this, is like winning the lottery. Spending close to nothing to cripple Russia is no brainer.
I guess your idea of “close to nothing” is different than most.
@@Will-rl7lm Hmmm
1. the stuff that is sent is ALREADY produced, it was paid for in previous 30 budgets.
2. Total sum of military help from USA so far is: 27,5 Billion of dollars
3. The military budget of USA in 2021 (pre war) was 800 Billion dollars.
So even if we say that all the equipment that was sent was from 2021..... it is drummmm plssss 3,4% of budget.....
But of course its all kind of equipment like Bradleys/Himars etc that are from early 2000s or even 90s. So if you realistically say that the equipment was produced in last 10 years.... (whre budget was from 700-800 billion) Than the USA spent whoooping 0,366% of their budget. And that is my deffinition of CLOSE TO NOTHING.
BTW in Afghanistan USA spent: 1 400 billion dollars and in Iraq 2 000 billions. And the all opperations in middle east 2001-2021 (post 9/11) was 8 000 Billions.
So now tell me again how 27,5 billion is serious money?
@@killdizzle Ivan stop drinking
I am not sure how buying a lottery ticket then losing is "winning". Lost Soledar, basically all but lost Bakhmut - but don't worry we're "winning"
@@killdizzle not sure where my comment went. But lend-lease is not charity. The money will be paid to US one way or the other. Also most countries are gonna arm like crazy, for example Germany +200b expenses on military. And lot of these funds will go to US. The sum I posted is from official US website, that youtube dont want me to post I guess. state gov. The update is from january 2023.
All I am saying is that military help from US is best deal for everyone and especialy for US. Same as it was during/after WW2. Or you think US would be US without its role in WW2?

Go join him then since youre so pro Ukrainian ... Why arent you in the frontlines???? You care so much that you encourage others to be fed to the meat grinder why not go find out what happens to Ukrainians and their sympathizers? Pretty sure Ukraine will pay for your ticket just to be thrown into the slaughter lol
Only thing is he sorta dumb, he was asked if he knows how this conflict started he's answer is "I've been following it since 2014" and that's it. If he needed civilians to spark him going to Ukraine then why did he go to the separatist side when the Ukrainians where shelling civilians? So in my opinion I can tell he doesn't know this conflict. I can understand the Ukrainian side and I understand the Russian side. Ukrainians have murdered around 100k of my people(polish) in the 40s.

I do not understand guys who go fight in wars, where they have no skin in the game i.e ,historical, familial etc. Particularly this war ,which is not cut and dry, that is good versus bad. And there is plenty of bad on both sides ,but I would contend that Russia was forced into this war ,and the West using Ukraine did ever thing possible to provoke this war,. A totally unnecessary war My heart goes out to all the families that suffer ,again this totally unnecessary and provoked war
Legit thats crazy that start it could be anywhere like looks normal
I don't think there is necessarily anything wrong with our overestimation of the Russian/Soviet war machine, because it allowed us to create a military that has over-match that will allow us to win if it ever comes to that. Now we have feedback that validates that, and with western equipment and tactics being married on the battlefield, we'll get more feedback still.
What? There is no chance to win, kid. And for you to know: Ukraine is brutally losing, even with all the NATO billions and throwing away its future as a country, ruined by that, not even Russian bombs.
@@miriamweller812 brutally loosing lmao I think you need to go to a doctor due to your drastically low iq. a brutal loss would have been Russia taking over in less than a month the fact that Russia is still struggling to take land speak volumes about how the war is progressing

Lol, what drugs do you smoke?
I noticed this guest in a combat video Civ Div uploaded, mainly because he sounded and acted like a fellow Marine. For me, this interview reinforced even more, that Ukraine’s cause is just, and worth fighting for. I endured injuries similar to Josh during a deployment in the Mideast, and no matter who you are, your natural reaction will not be to rush back into the fight unless you’re certain the fight is just, and the benefits outweigh the risks. Great interview, host and guest.
you are a war criminal
Lmfao
I am wishing you go to Ukraine. Come on buddy. The cause is just. I am cheering for you
People like you also cheere for the original Nazis.
Read a Nazi diary from their genocide through east europe. Oh, they were all heroes and the one fighting against them to stop their racist genocide were the monsters in their stories.
You side with literal Nazis, who praise just these people as heroes and share the exact same murderous rascism.
@@MS-ii1sv Interestingly, most of the veteran mercenaries who were there seem to have left Ukraine quickly, since the love to murder for money, what was easy enough when you hunt down goat herders and alike in a carpet bombed country, but being the target of an actual military and just dying from some missiles that was fired from 500km away, so an actual war, they don't like that.
Idk anything about battle wounds but dang is crazy to me how he thought it was just scratch and probably wanted to continue fighting I’m glad they took him to the back and checked on him thoroughly. Cojones of steel, mad respect to those fighting in the battlefield
Its 7FEB23 I just found this and confirmed you survived. holy fk bro. I just a few weeks ago saw the videos and read that your team was hit by a mortar round. Sorry you lost some brothers.

To have such an indifference towards the finality of death…. Is either courageous… stoicism at its best or been raised on Holy Grail by Monty Python (“ It’s Only a flesh wound…”) ??? Either way.. good to see he’s doing well and on the road to recovery
You forgot "stupidity".
@@fmo94jos8v3 only if you believe in the finality of death. Employed in a Hospice You tend to have a different approach. Science shows that those who have lived an angry bitter life or resentful life lead into death with that same approach. Those who lived a life of stoicism, agreement compromise and understanding accept death in that way.
It's not indifference. It's the acceptance of it being a possible outcome and having come to terms with that. Very different. The control makes it alien to many people but it's just that. The control over yourself . Has nothing to do with how you feel or how much
@@listrahtes interesting point. Fine line between accepting one's finality and the indifference of accepting. As if to say whatever happens happens. I recall speaking to a fellow who landed on Juno Beach in 44. Gene was a 6'2" Black man from Halifax Nova Scotia. Canada was the only army he told me that had a completely intragated armed force. First Nation People served in the same platoon beside Black Canadians and White Soldiers. No one cared so long as you could fight. 1.7 million canadians served out of a population of 5 million people. Amazing fact I take great pride in. My friend was wounded by a round from an MG42 going through his shoulder. Sent to the hospital ship, He was back in service on the front line to take part in the battle for Caen. It was there he fought against Kurt Meyer's SS and the Hilter Youth. Before No quarter was given or taken at that battle, He was again wounded. This time the rounds ripped apart his jaw, severing a piece of his tongue. The other pierced his wrist. Given aid by a medic and left while the medic went to attend other of the fallen, the Germans captured him. He once said you can't let your mind enter into Survivors' Guilt. You just accept that you made it while your buddy standing 2 feet from you didn't. You just accept it and do the right thing by being a good man to honour that gift of being 2 feet away.
Just a psychopath. What other business does any weesterner have in a foreign combat zone other than to fulldill some bloodlust
Overall I have some sympathy for Willy's take on the war, however don't take everything he say as gospel. Watched him on "Speak the Truth" and he definitely made some glaring factual errors about the background to this war.
Is this man from civ div video with bigger beard and helmet?
I have watch a ton of this stuff and this is the first person from either side to say "Im impressed with their planning and tactics".
I was thinking the same thing! Out of like 10 guys, this is the only one to say that. He also doesn’t seem to say much about anything he’s done. Seems like a poser.
@@redmond2442 When he said their tactics were like western tactics or nato tactics I was thinking wtf? how so without the air support? I dont wanna take anything away from what he may have done, but this seems a little bit puffy to me.
@LowLife I was in Iraq in 04,05, and 07 with nearly zero air support. Not having air support doesn't change our tactics to much.
Thank you for serving the federal reserve. Now take your vax goy
Kharkiv offensive was nato planned using nato tactics.
Just don’t forget usa invade without any reason but excuses to many nations we can’t talk about respect sovereign nations
Bucha got debunked.
The legend rides again!
Stupid is as stupid does.. 💯💯
I'm very impressed. I've been around Special Forces Guys all my life. Being a military brat. And being with the 82nd and 5th SF. This MAN has his shit together. Airborne! All The Way, Sir. Thanks, David
you don’t know anything it’s the same as wives who think because they are married to one have some sort of “Authority” to speak on SF things 😂
@@zaynevanday142 Sir, Who pulled your chain? I was with the 82nd Airborne Division for six years and the 5th Special Forces for eighteen years! I think I know a little about this. I'll bet, I was Jumping out of aircraft before you were born. Suck on that.
It's hilarious to see dumb stupid animals fight, kill and die for the almighty Federal Reserve 💵💵 created out of NOTHING.. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@DiversityIsOurStrength 😂 my mother's friend's uncle's husband was one too! I know all about them!
@@zaynevanday142 a bit "L" on reading comprehension today
great interview!
Good insights. Thank you. But it would be nice to have sole more explanations on the abbreviations that are used. Type of vehicles or weaponry etc. Thank you.
You could just look them up too.
9:07 did you miss it? He asked what brought him there
i'm curious what happens to foreign fighters, specifically Americans, when they come back seriously wounded... i assume they receive adequate care to fulfill their immediate health concerns when they're still in Ukraine, but obviously there are certain injuries that are life-changing, requiring treatment and care for years, even decades, down the road. Are there any private funds set up for guys who come back messed up, requiring expensive medical treatment? Certainly, Uncle Sam isn't going to pick up that tab.
Thanks, Willie, that was a great interview and a primary source historical record.
He definitely is helping write history books Willie is a legend for sure👍
It would be interesting to see him interview some primary sources from the other side.
@@jonathanjacob5453 ya watching this interview I was thinking he needs to find a way to interview one of the surrendered solders .he would definitely be the right person for that interview
@@jonathanjacob5453 If you could find one that is not a genocide propagandist.
@@011CJ Zolkin Volodymyr has that genre covered, with Dimi they do it well. Willie doesn't have the needed language skills.
Willy why not debate Colnel Douglas McGregor
That would be nice to watch
Been waiting to see something with this guy ever since watching civs videos
Thanks for the insight!
I’m Indifferent towards a lot of these former American soldiers, and marines that participate in the fighting. This guy reminds me of a few infantry soldiers I was around. My background is not infantry, but as tanker (19K). Many of these guys need quality NCOs and officers to guide them. I notice only a few can actually articulate why they are there, but I get feeling many are there for the glory. Obviously people are going to do whatever they want . I will never celebrate these individuals, but I’m old school in my stance, your either a soldier serving your country or not.
I've seen some people pushing this theory but essentially, an all-volunteet force attracts a certain kind of individual as the enlisted. It's hard to explain, but imagine for the first 18 years of most people's in a modestly modern state, you go through life being told what to do and have a regimented life: wake up time, school time, meal times, class periods, recess time, lunch time at school. All of the sudden, whrn you are 18, you are told "aight, you're an adult, now go figure it out". Some go to college, go crazy, sleep with lots of people, then finding out something they want to do, do their best at adulting, etc ... Some find being in the army and again, being told what to do and when they sleep or eat, well, comforting and that's who end up in an all-volunteer army.
That's one of the reason why I do think a conscript army is good for a republic. It pulls diverse people into the army and not having an isolated caste of military men. Singapore has a conscript army and some of their reservists thought about going to Ukraine and the Singapore state said, without any ambiguity: they have been trained by the Singapore state for Singapore state's defence and their skills belong to the state. It is not to be thrown away for foreigners.
Jesus Christ Willy! Ya found redbeard!
Willy is the BEARD
Great Interview. Thanks for taking a stand for what is right Josh. 👍
Less than 5% Willy. So 1/20th of the DoD budget. Plus most of it is previous generation equipment (or older).
Some of us are asking why we had to have an adversarial relationship with Russia. The absolutely hysterical response to Russia since 2016 isn't good for anyone and much of it is not rooted in fact. Russia is also far more resilient than people are giving them credit for. They haven't really ever fought a multi-year war where the first year wasn't a comedy of errors. They appear to be getting things together. I don't think this bleeding of Russia will end the way people think and we're just forcing new alliances between countries who are tired of being bullied by the handful of countries that run everything. Russia would make a far better ally than an enemy in the future. Even if it's an uneasy relationship. But that ship sailed. Nothing will ever be the same. At least not in our lifetimes. And if they really want to ratchet up the pain look for them to all but stop exports of fertilizers, etc to their new enemies.
Go to history..Russia made a lot of catastrophic mistakes during the beginning of Barbarossa ...so history is repeating again, they learned improved and defeated...only such big countries can turn the tables under such circumstances....
On the topic, i think it's very creepy how easy it is become the enemy you loathe. The "free world" immediately banned russian media, restricted the movement of people (no flights to/from Russia) and goods. Including sanctions on private citizens, some of them who aren't even russian, but British, french and so on.
Not to mention freezing the assets of the Russian State. That wasn't even done against Nazi Germany, and no matter how bad anyone thinks of Putin's Russia, they are nowhere near Hitlers Germany.
And then there's Ukraine. When it comes to democracy and stuff like that it's even worse than Russia. The media isn't free, they are banned if they do something wrong, and political parties are banned if the president doesn't like them.
And since 2014 you also have Azov, the right wing and others threatening, torturing and murdering citizens as well as politicians that they feel arent patriotic enough...
And they call this "protecting the Ukrainian democracy".
Why do we have to have an adversarial response to Russia. Where have you been living under a rock? Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 for no reason other than to subjugate the country to Russia. Putler’s talk of protecting Russians in the Donbas was complete lies. Russia has invaded most of its neighbours since Putler took power. Russia has to be stopped and forced to be a good neighbour in the world.😒
Russia is fashist state. That I can say to you as russian for sure. Civil live is modern and all that, but people has no power here (not like no one tried to change our country peacefully, those military fashist and nationalist fuckers don't give a shit). I can't see how you will "peacefully" negotiate something with those who in power in Russia. It just can't happen. So wait for another revolution or something, lol. I don't even see something else for sollution to this problem, as I hate this (because country will fall appart and millions will die).
The absolutely hysterical fear of Russia dates back way earlier than 2016. The west, and America in particular, has been manufacturing hysteria since May 8th 1945. We created a boogeyman for a variety of reasons…some rational…but mostly irrational and it’s become a self fulfilling prophecy after 80 years trying to keep out boot on their neck. Its a sad reality that primed a powder keg which has now ignited. Hopefully when this war is over the politicians and governments of the world will reconsider the use of nationalist fear mongering as a political tool.
Didn’t this guys team leader shoot and kill a surrendered Russian that ended up getting the Irishman killed?
Willy, it is not a sixth or seventh of the US defense budget going to Ukraine. It is *** 5.6 % *** !!!!!!!!! That is about four times less than what you said. America is risking bugger all on this war and it is bloody shameful. We promised to stand by them in Budapest - we should be giving them a shitload. We are giving them small amounts out of our surplus. No one has the right to talk about our Ukraine policy as if it is harming our stores in any way. With respect, sir, but you over-estimate our "generosity". I am utterly appalled at how little this government is giving to Ukraine. Thanks for letting me rant. And thanks for these terrific interviews.
Is this the guy that apparently killed a Russian that tried to surrender?
Be careful over there Josh, dont use up all your luck.
Pretty sure a wound that coulda killed him 4 different ways is using up all the luck.
Thanks for this Video Willy! Godspeed to this Warrior, hope he fully heals quick and can get back to the fight for freedom!!!
Please he is misguided cannon fodder who really doesn't lnow what he's fighting for..
Great video really interesting. I've never been in the military, but come from a strong military family and grew up on RAF military bases in europe the med and UK. So when I went to Prague early 90's just after the velvet revolution and saw my first russian hind fly over my head, I couldnt believe what I was seeing and found it very difficult to explain (without sounding like a prat) so the comments at 16:00 hit the nail on the head. Thanks again for the video
guys IQ is about 80
Yeah, comes across as pretty arrogant and not very bright. I guess the perfect qualities for a soldier.
Clearly didn't do his research, otherwise he would have realised the US has been pushing for this war for a very long time.
At the house, where Josh was wounded, he is accused of killing a Russian soldier who was trying to negotiate a surrender. The story, with video footage, and Josh's info has been posted online by Wagner.
Not Josh, but another American.
I watched the vdeo and saw the Spetnaz unit firing back at the guys, so i dont see any wrong doing!!
The trustworthy source of Wagner....
This guy sounds kind of FOS, in my opinion. He's not being honest.
Great video!
Warning, Ivan and his bots are drunk in the replies pointing out how glorious the Russian regime is. It's funny, the Russians are the second best army in Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!
