Ukrainian troops in the field under Russian artillery fire discover an abandoned bathtub near their position. They proceed to turn it into a field expedient cover system to protect them from fragmentation.

If I had told 2015 Funker Josh that he would be writing a blog in 2023 about a Ukrainian Soldier using a bathtub as a field expedient ballistic shield against Russian fire, I probably wouldn't have believed me. This is normally the kind of thing you only hear about in movies. In 2023, anything truly is impossible.

We live in weird times, but at least this guy has his commando humor still.

It's unclear where and when this was filmed.
