24 hrs

What a last 24 hrs, at long last the mad man in the Kremlin is probably in tears after so many attacks on the occupied Krimea region of Ukraine. Absolutely great news, now perhaps the west can see what Ukraine can do not to civilian targets but military ones by supplying long range missiles. The life line for re-supplying Russian soldiers in Krimea is being targeted not only by misiles but by drones in the sky and on the sea, these are made by Ukraine and with the help of misiles they are cutting off Krimea, the main bridge and ferries were struck overnight as well as military targets, no civilian targets were hit and not many cassulties. These attacks were well planned and maybe Ukraine can now export more food supplies to the countries that need it as well as trying to take back what was part of Ukraine, what a devastating blow to the lunatic Putin who shouldn't have started this war in the first place and to see his soldiers drunk on the front line sends a message to Putin, give in and let us go back to our families alive. Also one of Putins puppets Trump has been found guilty in the US and probably faces jail, I can't see him running for president this time but who knows what will unfold, at last the truth is coming out as was shown by the ruling in court, what will Putin do now without his puppet in charge? It was also great to see videos of train loads of British tanks heading for Ukraine and even aid arriving by road now western aid is heading for Ukraine, now the west is beginning to see why help is so important not only to Ukraine but also to the security of countries bordering it. It's probably wrong for me to be happy with what is unfolding but I am and if the west had supplied these aid packages a long time ago then there wouldn't be so many dead and injured on both sides, what will happen over the months to come I hope will only be more good news. The message is now going out to all dictators in the world don't start a war because communism is dying and the people of the world will get what they want, an ordinary life as every one in the west has because of democracy, long live freedom and free speech, it's about time that the US, NATO and the EU came together as one and helped the lesser supplied military countries like Ukraine. Well that's all for now as I'm going to watch the latest reports from the war zones with a smile on my face almost as big as it was when Croatia got back it's country so long ago.

Ninth installment

The remains of the unit that were in this position left and we followed them, we went around the outskirts of the village and back into the center. The rest of PIV or what was left of it were already there, we found out that Colin just after he had reached the main hq in the center of the village. We had to go back to the end of the street to see what was happening but as soon as we arrived we came under heavy fire as the enemy had pinpointed this house as our new front line, there was no way that we could reach Eric without getting everyone who attempted a rescue killed and because of the amount of enemy fire we had to fall back, on the way Alan started going berserk saying that he had to go back to fight, he was shooting everywhere so George calmed him down and asked him to take care of the elderly and that seemed to work. By now the village command had decided it was time to leave but first we had to wait for the mortar unit to reach safety. We could not get anywhere near under cons...

Third installment

Day in, day out, it was the same routine, sleep, guard, fire off a few rounds in the general direction of the enemy, there was not much else to do, the main thing was to stay alive by keeping inside every time mortars or artillery came flying in to the village. The only time that there was a lot of activitie was when we were buzzed by planes, everybody would rush outside, Ernie would jump on the transporter and fire the machine gun, I used to run to the machine gun that was mounted on a tripod at the end of the street and also fire at the plane, everybody else would be outside firing their ak47s, there was not much chance of hitting it or bringing it down but it took only one lucky shot and that would give everyone hope. After the plane had gone out of sight that the transporter was Ernies because he had shot at the enemy leaving the damaged transporter with a sniper rifle, so Geordi the commander in charge of the defense of Osijek had given it to Ernie, I also found out that he worked...

Second installment

The word money has a way of working it's way into every aspect of life and my little crusade was not exempt, how much did I need to get to Croatia, how much did I need to survive on the way, it all had to be taken into account and most where and how I was going to get the money from that I needed. By inquiring at travel agents I found out that I could fly but only as far as Austria, Italy or Hungary but the price was much too expensive for me. Taking the train to any of these countries was also far too expensive, the cheapest way was by bus but the only problem was that it took so long to reach your destination. The bus that I wanted to take went from London and it's destination was Athens in Greece, it normally went through Yugoslavia but because of the war it was not going through Budapest then down into Belgrade before going onto Greece. This was the cheapest way to go and after further inquiries I found out the times and price of the bus, now all I had to do was get the mon...
