US has trained more than 7,000 Ukrainian troops since Russia's invasion began, Pentagon says
From CNN's Haley Britzky

 
More than 7,000 Ukrainian troops have received training by United States forces since the beginning of Russia’s invasion last year, Pentagon spokesman Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder said Thursday.

This week, 65 Ukrainians who were training on the Patriot air defense system at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, returned to Europe after completing that training.

Ryder also said that more than 4,000 Ukrainian soldiers will have completed combined arms training in Germany at the end of this month, including two brigades — one equipped with Bradley Fighting Vehicles and the other with Stryker vehicles.

“Additional combined arms training is currently underway at Grafenwoehr and Hohenfels training areas in Germany, with two motorized infantry battalions consisting of 1,200 Ukrainian Armed Forces personnel,” Ryder said.

Did they train them in CRT?  How about pronouns?  Maybe gay rights?  Did they provide crying rooms?  If not, how do they expect Ukraine to hold off Russia? :whistle:
