Some Ukrainian soldiers sent to learn modern combat techniques in the UK, Spain, Germany or Poland are now feeling disappointed. When faced with an emergency, they sometimes find more help on YouTube.
Survivalist videos? How to avoid hypothermia/how to reduce your heat footprint to escape thermals/ how to clean and maintain your guns (many military weapons have identical civilian counterparts minus full auto), how to clean water in emergencies, how to identify edible plants/mushrooms.
Basic battlefield and squad tactics. How to make booby traps, tripwires, and traps. How to organize squads and advance/retreat.
Ironically the US military has some very good videos on YouTube for how to advance a squad, lay down covering fire, set up ambushes, effectively use different squad roles, and how to coordinate air and artillery forces. I’m sure there are plenty such videos for a wide range of topics.

Oh I’m well aware of the official stuff and even the stuff made by non-professional veterans doing their civil war 2 larping, I’m curious about what specifics do the guys over in Ukraine are looking up since it would serve as a good barometer of what actually works in field conditions vs what works in theory. But that’d require me to dive into the Ukraine war pigs side of the internet and I don’t want to inflict psychic damage on myself lmao.
