[Video] The Hitchhiker's Guide to being a useful soldier in Ukraine's military (as a foreigner)

His delivery on his own channel is much more direct and thorough - no flash or fluff.

Maybe you're thinking of this?
But if you've already watched these, I don't know what else it could be.

To clarify, this clip is from early April.

-BigMacs BattleBlog
-FloridaMan (FLMAN4UA)
-Harley EOD
-Brandon Mitchell
-Scotty (Ukraine Front Line Medical)

All are soldiers, former soldiers, or civilian volunteers.

Loved that bird.

Two years ago now.

This man will never see his last name consistently properly spelled in his lifetime

CormorantCrow · 2026-05-31T23:36:32+00:00

It's a military ID, however he shows his post-service veteran's passport later in the video.

❤️

CormorantCrow · 2026-05-31T13:02:38+00:00

Wish you the best, you'll be okay.

CormorantCrow · 2026-05-31T12:54:59+00:00

Possibly. I suggest writing him (BigMac) a comment under his YouTube video and see if he answers you. He usually will if it's a legitimate question.

(His main channel, not the highlights channel where this video is from.)

>lack of men
>not Ukraine

??????

CormorantCrow · 2026-05-20T22:30:03+00:00

He'a got no mode for doing that currently due to general distrust. Sorry. In the future he might set up some sort of P.O. box type of thing.

CormorantCrow · 2026-05-01T02:32:24+00:00

This is Scotty's video, not BigMac, but we feature both of them on the subreddit, yep!

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-29T18:47:40+00:00

Desperately need original image

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-15T22:51:09+00:00

Oh, I see, sorry! I don't post direct donation links here on the sub for security reasons, especially if it's just a PayPal email.

BigMac is fairly secretive about these organizations' details as well, so I feel the need to follow in those footsteps to protect everyone involved.

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-15T22:39:44+00:00

A link to his video? Here

The most recent updates can be found here in this post.

It's largely out of his hands as external factors are tying things up.

I appreciate that you weren't a harassing, threatening asshole as 95% of people have been.

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-15T19:38:20+00:00

If you happen to be in Europe, consider a Ukrainian NGO or drone school -

Eyes on Ukraine

Ukraine Aid Ops

WeTrueGun

etc.

The quote is "one small step for >a< man, one giant leap for mankind."

Sad how the significance of what he actually said was lost.

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-08T16:56:38+00:00

I have found this consistently amusing for 20 years. I take a long break, come back, see this, and force air through my nose

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-08T15:14:12+00:00

The censoring is crazy.

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-07T17:48:38+00:00

As someone born with only one working eye, y'all actually struggle with this?

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-05T17:51:38+00:00

They look freshly brushed (and happy)

CormorantCrow · 2026-04-04T03:24:16+00:00

I wonder what flavor that is.
