00:00from Massachusetts, Boston, the city, the capital of the state, the capital of Massachusetts.

00:06That's right, yeah, my call sign, Passive Noise, Boston. Yeah, it's where I'm from, so

00:09I said, why not? I'll go with it. Yeah, the guys get a laugh out of it. They get a kick out of it.

00:14Yeah, well, we were sitting down and trying to figure out what my passive noise should be,

00:18and one of them said, oh, you're from Boston. It should be Boston, Boston. I was like, okay,

00:21no, I like it. I like it. Yeah, so like I said, I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, and I served

00:2510 years in the US Air Force, some years in the Massachusetts Air National Guard,

00:29and I did two years as a city councilor, and when I got involved in politics, I zoomed out

00:35into the international level of politics, and you really kind of stop and pause and think about

00:40what's going on here, and you know, you feel like you have to do something about it, so

00:44I came in January. I spent some time in Moscow, then I came to Donetsk. I was in contact with

00:49some of the folks in Piatnushka, the international brigade in Donetsk, and I served there for three

00:53months, and then after that, I had some friends that went on to serve with the Ministry of Defense,

00:57the 137th Brigade, where we're here, and they said, well, come on, come on, it's great, and

01:01so I decided to join them, and here we are. You said good skill. I didn't say it. Yeah, no, I,

01:06you know, I had training. I had academic training. I was an E6 tech sergeant. You know, my job was

01:11air-based defense. It's military, police, security forces. We deal with things like drones and, you

01:17know, other things, other problems, internal, external, and yeah, I've definitely been able

01:21to apply some of those skills, leadership skills, as well here. Yeah, well, I mean, look, I've heard

01:26that question come up a lot, and what I say to that is the United States and Russia are not at war.

01:31The United States has done things that are very provocative, very bad. It's been involved in

01:37other people's politics, other nations' interests, and should not be doing that. I always say,

01:43and Sergey Lavrov said this a couple weeks ago, I think that the country is ran by different people

01:49than the people that live in the country and feel a different way. I think it's important for, I mean,

01:55we've got an election coming up in the United States. I think it's important for people to just,

01:59you know, do their own research and kind of read about things from independent news outlets and

02:04understand what's really going on here, understand that this started back in 2014 with

02:09our politicians coming down here and saying all sorts of different things and making all sorts

02:13of different promises, and this doesn't represent the true interests of the American people.

02:17It's not, you know, it's not. What benefit is it for the United States to have million,

02:23multi-million dollar tanks rolling down here trying to kill people, you know, missiles firing

02:28at a beach of innocent people? You know, what interest is that? F-16s? There's no interest to

02:32that. You know, our country's trillions of dollars in debt. Our country's collapsing. It's falling

02:36apart. And, you know, it's just not, in my opinion, representative of the real interests of the

02:42American people. So when I hear that question, you know, I don't consider myself a traitor. The

02:46United States and Russia aren't at war. And, you know, in the future, I think that the people that

02:51caused this in my country should be held responsible for what they've done. And we can

02:56have some sort of friendship between Russia and the United States. Yeah, of course. I mean, I've,

03:00you know, I've worked downrange with these guys, like we say in the U.S. military on the front,

03:04and I absolutely trust them to have my back 100%. And I know for a fact that they trust me as well.

03:09And, you know, I, what I always tell people is, because this, this also, this is a question that

03:14comes up in the U.S. military. It's about the people that you're with. It's about the people

03:18that, you know, you're serving with, because this isn't, you know, this is, to be realistic,

03:21this is a dangerous situation. You know, we're all down here serving, we're doing our job,

03:25but what makes it or breaks it is the people that you're with. And, you know, these guys have been

03:29great. They speak English, they're professionals. You know, they help you when you need it. If I

03:33don't have something, or if I don't understand something, I'm like, oh, boss, I need this with

03:37that. Like, no problem. You know, they teach me words. They teach me Russian. You know,

03:43they help me to deal with, you know, my girlfriend.

03:48And they help me to navigate, you know, all the complexities and the cultural differences. And,

03:53again, it's, it's about the people that you're here with. And I couldn't pick a better group

03:57of people to be here with. Well, it was a joke. It started back when I first got here,

04:01they were introducing me and they said, oh, it's an American. I said, yeah, Ruski.

04:04And then after that, they laughed. And now everybody says, oh yeah, he's Russian American.

04:08But no, I, I love these guys. They're too kind. And, you know, I appreciate the,

04:13the warmness and the openness that they've had for me. I can't express, I can't express it.

04:19It's, it's, it's crazy. I mean, it's propaganda, right? It's, it's, you know, I've heard this

04:24quote so many times, whoever wins wars gets to write the history about them. And unfortunately,

04:28on that side, there hasn't been enough liberation yet. So, I mean, they say what they want and

04:32people believe it. And it's unfortunate, the mainstream media in the U.S., where was the

04:36outrage? You know, you think about the horrible attack that happened on the beach. Where was the

04:41outrage of the terrorist attack that happened? Where was the outrage? I read in the attack in

04:46Kursk that just happened. I mean, it's a terrorist attack. A 28-year-old pregnant woman died. I saw,

04:51I think we've all seen that. You know, where, where is the outrage in the Western press for

04:54that? You know, when you think about, this is what I was talking about when I made my decision.

04:58Oh, what should I say? Let's see. What should I say?

05:01Victory will be ours. Right? Important.
