  1. The Ukrainians held out until they were all captured or killed, they made the Russians pay for every inch of Ukrainian land they stole.

    The heroes live on in the memories of a grateful world.

    I remember following this.

    It was this, the MH17, and the russian idiots taking selfies in the wreckage that made me understand this is not going to blow over.

    Slava Ukraine!

  3. I can’t help but be amazed buy the sheer amount of courage a man must have to behave like that in such a situation

    When you realized you have no how of escaping and you stand up to make sure that every second of life will still have will cause damage to your foe

  4. I will never forget seeing those videos roll out. I have a tremendous amount of respect for the Cyborgs! And for Ukraine as a whole. Rest easy warriors!
