I was also afraid of this, but honestly it probably produced a lot less than you might suspect. A lot of these guys are dead and many of them left after the initial bombing of the Reddit brigade pretty early in the war. The ones that have stuck it out are guys who already had military experience. I’m sure there are guys who really cut their teeth in Ukraine, but it’s probably not as many as one would think imho. Ukraine in a way is probably the death of the over abundance of special operations guys in the west.
