Brazilian Volunteers Conduct CASEVAC After Artillery
Published 2 weeks ago
We have covered footage of this Brazilian volunteer unit in Kreminna Forest before, which typically showcases them doggedly defending their trench network and/or shutting down a noisy neighbor with one round from a FAL. Unfortunately, this particular video shows the volunteer contingent in a moment when things are decidedly not going their way. We see the soldiers sheltering in very shallow trenches, having endured a Russian artillery strike which has left several trees burning and smoking. The camera operator known as "Rafael" runs down the line to witness a wounded comrade being evacuated. This war is often represented by drone drops, EDM and metal over the "good guys" clearing trenches. While this video may not have a lot to show in terms of action, I think the heavy breathing in shallow trenches amid a burned-out forest, and a run to retrieve a squad mate, is probably a more realistic snapshot of what this war is for most of its combatants.
