Will Killmore (Funker530 Journalist) has crossed into Ukraine and took a moment to share thoughts on the crossing. Will is documenting his travel with GSMSG and we don't have a lot of information on his itinerary (purposefully). Will describes a lengthy process for getting into Ukraine, which is a contrast to a few months ago when the border was porous and folks almost freely flowed in and out of the country. Will also discusses the reality of a country at war in Lviv, with military presence and fortifications not hindering people from going about their daily lives while a fight rages in the east.  

In Ukraine since March shortly after the invasion kicked off, GSMSG has trained over 6,000 Ukrainian civilians in Combat Casualty Care, more than 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers in the same, passed on train-the-trainer knowledge to 20 Ukrainians to carry forward TCCC training to their units, started the Lviv Visiting Surgeon Program, and directly assisted in dozens of major surgeries on combat-related casualties.

A couple of notes from the staff, here. Foremost, these videos are being posted on a non-descript delay to protect both Will and the GSMSG mission partners, as well as the mission's OPSEC. I'll be posting these for Will so he can focus on aiding GSMSG in telling their story. If you'd like to support a great organization directly, I'll include all of their links down below. -Ronnie
