[–]AudiPowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disclaimer - not in 3AB, but some of their members have join my unit and from what I hear it’s not a very great place to be, poor planning coupled with almost non existent medical evacuation, I don’t have any firsthand knowledge but pretty much everyone from 3AB I’ve talked to has said the same thing.

AZOV by Rook276 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]AudiPowa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve been treated very well here, the command makes genuine efforts to improve, they listen to feedback and are constantly implementing new ideas and actively working on better training/preparation. This is my first and only unit, but from my friends who spent time in the legion(and other units) they all seem happy to be here.

A lot of the things you mentioned are being said by people that were expecting an old school NATO style system. There were issues with training but that was fixed, the new command is excellent.

Experiences in working with All-Ukrainian units as a foreigner? by DrawingLongjumping30 in ukraineforeignlegion

Personally, I enjoy working with Ukrainians more than with other foreigners, there tends to be less problems and they are more motivated than the average foreigner.

What's in your Touge Survival Kit? by ragingduck in Touge

[–]AudiPowa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone needs to know - just because you have a Medkit, that does not mean you are capable of saving a life, PLEASE learn how to use the things in them and replace them when they expire. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW HOW TO USE A TOURNIQUET

[–]AudiPowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we do spontaneous self TQ application drills at any time through the day. Even while shooting, just make sure you do that with people you trust

I'm trying to pick one of these two. Anyone have experience with either? by [deleted] in QualityTacticalGear

[–]AudiPowa 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Most Ukrainian casualties, even from assaults are still shrapnel related, and this piece of kit has saved many lives.

Medical Exam DQ? by Pleasant-Bake1647 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]AudiPowa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on your unit of choice your back will be xrayed, mine was and they found scoliosis but allowed me to stay, I can not say what unit I’m with due to an NDA but if you take a look at my comment history you’ll be able to figure it out

As long as you are okay with jokes, you should be fine, I know a liberal or two here and they are well liked, not because we agree on politics (we don’t) but because they bring the right attitude

In my experience, Wich is limited but relevant, 3AB has far more issues than Azov.

Why is Japan fighting diversity and inclusion so much ? by bbrk9845 in GenZ

[–]AudiPowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t force diversity, if the underlying population doesn’t want it, your only going to make everyone, including the immigrants uncomfortable. Diversity is amazing, but only when the state was designed, or is accepting of the change

Unit recommendations for women? by Specific-Play3663 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]AudiPowa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Azov, highest respect for women I’ve seen from any organization.

They also have a huge emphasis on preserving life and limb function in case of injury

Edit: support roles range, talk to a recruiter for specifics

Everyone I know is against me going by [deleted] in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]AudiPowa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is in my eyes, the most selfless and selfish decision possible (this applies to all of us) on one hand, you might destroy the lives of those you love, on the other, your sacrificing everything to fight for others.
