Messenger: Freed in Russia Prisoner Swap, US Marine Injured Fighting in Ukraine (Exclusive)  

US officials are frustrated that Trevor Reed went to Ukraine after the efforts made to bring him home from Russia 

A Marine veteran who was freed from Russia in a 2022 prisoner exchange has volunteered to fight for Ukraine and is now asking for U.S. government help after sustaining injuries on the battlefield, The Messenger has learned. 

Trevor Reed was wounded after stepping on a landmine roughly two weeks ago, according to two U.S. military officials who were briefed on the events. Reed had spent more than two years in Russian custody before winning his freedom in April 2022. 

The officials, who spoke under condition of anonymity due to Defense Department regulations, said they did not know the extent of Reed’s injuries but said he had suffered shrapnel wounds from the explosion. One of the sources said Reed was being treated in the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, and had requested transfer to an American military facility in either Germany or Poland.

I feel that if he chose to fight for Ukraine, the US taxpayer should not pay for his medical care. He was not injured fighting for the US.

Photo already says it all zero human and mental difference from the Russian to the American only two charlatan countries, does anyone remember the Mossad operations and nuclear super weapons as well as the sub nazi in Antarctica? Strange, no one talks about it..., it seems that the past is a conspiracy and now the present of the colored flag is reality, something tells me that there is a trap on the way worldwide.

I suppose the US taxpayer will cough up for this fiasco too. So he can go back again. You can’t fix stupid.
