Lithuanians went to more or less decent earnings. It’s not all Britons cleaning plumbing ...

And these "instructors" there, err...
For the first time I see the number of "cadets" in the "training" more than the entire army among the "instructors".

It seemed like "instructors" from Zimbabwe were teaching American Aleuts to hunt walrus...

Can anyone suggest what useful Lithuanians can teach Ukrainians?

Do not rush. In theory, for their wards, the training period should be increased.

It has always been interesting how small countries that have never taken part in hostilities in their history can train someone)))

In fact, the reverse situation seems to be the case. Lithuanian instructors went to learn how to use mortars with Ukrainian cadets.

Whoever teaches them, soon the penguins will take up the training of the Ukrainian military.

If it were not for 1 platoon of brave Lithuanian guys, then the Americans would not have lasted even a month in Iraq, but there can be no question of Afghanistan.

Maybe there is someone who understands - what does Lithuania and the Ukrainian military have to do with it? Who were pissed off in Great Abortion?
