Discussion on The Spear Podcast: Preparing Civilian Population for Military Conflict in Ukraine
Former US Army Officer Matt Gallagher Trains Civilians in Lviv, Ukraine
Matt Gallagher, a veteran of combat in Iraq, has recently returned from providing training to civilians in Lviv, Ukraine. In a podcast episode of The Spear, Gallagher talks with host Tim Heck about his decision to travel to Ukraine and the human costs of war.
Lviv, the largest city in western Ukraine, has been a hub of resistance against Russian forces. Gallagher has been working with civilians there, sharing his expertise and helping them prepare for the challenges they may face.
In the podcast episode, Gallagher shares reflections that are both personal and profound, much like in his memoir Kaboom. He discusses the impact of war on individuals and communities, and the importance of standing up for what is right.
