I thought the expression was " Revenge is sweet when it's served up COLD. " What you did was not " cold "- it was " scorching hot ". Very reckless Trevor.

All the trouble people went through to free him, and he’s right back in the middle of that ––– show and a G-D mercenary!

This soldier is lucky to make it home. Estimated 300-350k Ukraine military have been killed.
NATO Secritary General Jen's Stoltenberg said the damage in this conflict was unimaginable. Think about someone in his position saying that.

Seeing these pictures, I remember Reed and the prisoner exchange....April 2022.
Recent pictures show him much heavier.
He went right back into the fight 😮
He's lucky. He survived stepping on a mine with shrapnel wounds.
Lucky that the Russians didn't get a hold of him again...this time fighting against them.
He would have never gotten out of that cage.
