Ukrainian Pro-Russian Rebels Prepare For Winter

WNU Editor: Winter is just around the corner, and while there is still no snow on the ground .... it is coming. The above picture .... if accurate .... tells me that the rebels in eastern Ukraine are definitely prepared for winter combat. They have the right clothing .... and are prepared for the long haul. The below video is also very revealing .... it shows what life is like on the front lines as these rebel soldiers prepare for winter.



My Comment: On a personal note .... these pictures and videos are disturbing. They remind me of the many people that I know who live there, and there is a part of me that is saying that if my life did not go in the direction that it did .... I would probably be there right now ...  in some trench .... with a bunch of kids looking at me on what we must do to survive.

Yeah, that look can really suck if you are incompetent.
