The measure enables older volunteers to serve in non-combat and specialized roles, expanding Ukraine’s recruitment pool amid continued manpower shortages.

        Defos. To be crude; they have less to lose as well. If I was that age and my country was being invaded I would certainly sacrifice myself to save the younger people.

            I’m getting a masters in my mid thirties with a cohort mostly in their early twenties and I completely agree with you. I wrote a whole thing, but it really seemed like bragging. It’s incredibly obvious to me that the difference is just time, so I don’t feel pride in it. They’ll get there.
