    Lindybeige did a series of videos with a British volunteer, who said, that a lot of western veterans can't deal with the fighting over there. When you go in and expect fighting like we did in iraq and afghanistan, where we airstriked entire mountainsides because of a single mg position, with casevac at basically all times, sleeping in the relative safety of pur bases, it does something to you to be on the weaker end of a conflict, being shelled for hours, no casevac, no airsupport, an enemy who looks exactly like friendly forces, living in trenches, cold, hunger, etc
    He said in some cases people without prior combar experience deal with it better, cause they don't have much expectations going in, aside from "it's gonna suck"

    I can't even imagine what it must be like to be under that constant level of stress for weeks at a time, having drones trying to drop grenades on you and your buddies while you sleep, going trench to trench trying to clear it out not knowing if there's a Russian waiting to shoot you round the next corner, getting shelled and mortared.

In fact, Russia has so much AA precisely because they know how we fight and planned to fight against it. The US has since WW2 pretty much fought against every enemy with total air superiority on its side. I think we could and should be learning valuable lessons from this conflict about what a modern and conventional war looks like, and it certainly isn't as cut and dry as our past conflicts have been.

    Looks like these guys are already comfortable fighting in trench combat. They are comfortable shooting close to each other like veterans from WWI and WWII on the Eastern Front. They look and sound motivated and working as a team within squad and platoon level. Their combat is way harder than what I did experience in Iraq during the Surge. Artillery and mortars on the enemy side well trained makes life difficult. These dudes are solid and don't mess around in combat.

    For anyone who is curious...The GP-25, GP-30 and GP-34 (The line of mounted grenade launcher used in the video) are a muzzle loaded GL with a specialized mechanism that prevents a live round from dropping out of the chamber when the barrel is pointed toward the ground. This was a problem on earlier designs because the weight of the loaded round in the chamber made the gun extremely muzzle heavy, often leading to soldiers tiring and allowing the muzzle to drop with disastrous results. This mechanism can fail to disengage when the round is fired. That leaves the operator with a live round in the chamber that has likely damaged the weapon enough that it can not be safely manually extracted in the field.

But still, I feel like it throws your humanity away when you crave blood even for someone you consider your enemy. Fight when needed, as the Ukrainians are, not for bloodlust, as many in these comments would. It’s disturbing to see the fetishizing of violence and how quick people are to dehumanize others.

    I think the worst and somehow most real one i've seen that shows the real tension and horror of trench fighting was posted by the Sun UA-cam channel ( A British newspaper that's sometimes questionable for most over here xD ) called " Single Ukrainian soldier fights off Russian attack on trench " or something like that, think it was around 5 mins or so,posted a week or so ago with 2 guys standing their ground, might be worth a look as i'm not sure if it would be ideal to post as it might be demonetized but i suppose if it stayed up for them then who knows and it's a bit more tense than this one for sure.
    But either way it was eye opening and seemed like an unfiltered chunk of recording, both sides are practically breathing down each others necks more so than here and you can see how terrible the whole situation is, its the real kind of no agenda portrayal of war that makes you question how humanity keeps ending up in these situations..

    Smart tactic actually. they barrage the enemy trenches then assault to clear out the leftovers with minimal risk to themselves. then they retreat and let the Russians reoccupy the same trenches that they are already dialed in on with arty and then they can just do it all over again. effective way to kill a lot of russians with minimal risk off losing friendlies.

    6:59 - To the right of the soldier a few pebbles are falling from the trench wall. It happens right after the nearby shell explodes but before the soldier's hand touches the trench, so the soldier didn't make the pebbles fall. Is it merely from the air pressure from the blast? Or did a piece of shrapnel hit the dirt wall right next to him? That last thought is scary. [Edit] The former was written before I saw the full footage. This whole footage was scary. These guys have courage. I hope they stay safe. Slava Ukraini!

    Some serious fighting and tough ground within and around the trench. Brave chaps and I like the VOG on the distant targets, not seen that in general and not something we used in the UK. The comms issue must be v serious and hold things up, likewise the potential for blue on blue is huge, the chap putting rounds down as they withdraw and then a friendly appears is just WOW watch out. Still they appear to understand and work togther well, so they are getting it done. Can't help but think that someone giving them a comms package might be more useful than some of the other kit, as they would do better working in a wider joined up thinking situation. I loved watching your face when you see the potential hazards and how these chaps deployed drills, for a western trained soldier some of this is crazy and you would go mad at any of your people if they did some of this stuff.
