Was it just me who grew up on tales of the Flying Tigers and the Lafayette Escadrille? The romance, the glory of being in the vanguard of American involvement in what became a world war? Like, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest that there are Americans eager to fight for Ukraine! I was practically taught how to read on these stories.

Battlefield landscape: Everywhere there are corpses of Wagnerites and soldiers of the Russian orc army at Bakhmut and other front line sectors, Ukraine, 2023. Source: russoldat.info
P.S. These dead Russian imperialists thought that Ukraine is not a country and Ukrainians are not a nation, but now these Russian orcs have become fertilizer for Ukrainian crop fields...! 
Quoting Ukrainian troops and Latvian volunteers fighting against invaders in Ukraine : “We don't care about wet dreams of Russian war criminals: Send 100,000 orcs, half a million or five million... or as many as are left in Russia, we will cut them down all,  like a field of corn...We will fight as long as it takes to destroy all invaders until complete victory...!”
