Turning my thoughts to Ukraine and Russia. Russia is completely out classed by the Ukrainian soldiers. Many of the current Russian fighters have never had a day of training. They are sent to the front to be slaughtered.

I wish the people back in Russia could know the truth. Putin would be long gone if they did.
