So I'm Will. I'm from Massachusetts, Boston. It's the city, the capital of the state, the capital of Massachusetts. That's right, yeah, my call sign, Pazivnoida, Boston. Yeah, it's where I'm from, so I said, why not? I'll go with it. Yeah, the guys get a laugh out of it. They get a kick out of it, yeah. Well, we were sitting down and trying to figure out what my Pazivnoida should be, and one of them said, oh, you're from Boston. It should be Boston, Boston. I was like, okay, I like it. I like it. Yeah, so like I said, I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, and I served 10 years in the U.S. Air Force, some years in the Massachusetts Air National Guard, and I did two years as a city councilor, and when I got involved in politics, I zoomed out into the international level of politics, and you really kind of stop and pause and think about what 's going on here, and, you know, you feel like you have to do something about it. So I came in January. I spent some time in Moscow, and I came to Donetsk. I was in contact with some of the folks in Piatnashka, the international brigade in Donetsk, and I served there for three months, and then after that I had some friends that went on to serve with the Ministry of Defense, the 137th brigade where we're here, and said, well, come on, come on, it's great, and so I decided to join them, and here we are. You said good skill. I didn't say it. Yeah, no, I, you know, I had training. I had academic training. I was an E6 tech sergeant. You know, my job is air-based defense. It's military, police, security forces. We deal with things like drones and, you know, other things other problems, internal, external, and, yeah, I've definitely been able to apply some of those skills, leadership skills as well here. Yeah, well, I mean, look, I've heard that question come up a lot, and what I say to that is the United States and Russia are not at war. The United States has done things that are very provocative , very bad. It's been involved in other people's politics, other nations' interests, and should not be doing that. I always say, and Sergey Lavrov said this a couple weeks ago, I think that the country is ran by different people than the people that live in the country and feel a different way. I think it's important for, I mean, we've got an election coming up in the United States. I think it's important for people to just, you know, do their own research and kind of read about things from independent news outlets and understand what's really going on here, understand that this started back in 2014 with our politicians coming down here and saying all sorts of different things and making all sorts of different promises, and this doesn't represent the true interests of the American people. It's not, you know, what benefit is it for the United States to have million, multi-million dollar tanks rolling down here trying to kill people, you know, missiles firing at a beach of innocent people. You know, what interest is that? F-16, there's no interest to that. You know, our country's trillions of dollars in debt, our country's collapsing, it's falling apart, and, you know, it's just not, in my opinion, representative of the real interests of the American people So when I hear that question, you know, I don't consider myself a traitor. The United States and Russia are in that war, and, you know, in the future, I think that the people that cause this in my country should be held responsible for what they've done, and we can have some sort of friendship between Russia and the United States.
