with this information, you can draw your own conclusions. further information has also emerged about my role in the combat unit i now belong to. i have been proposed as an instructor who will accompany newly trained soldiers to their first frontlines and combat missions. this would allow me to provide practical training in real-world conditions based on what they learned at the training campus. this is exactly what i did at the start of the war. additionally, i have been asked to evaluate new innovative weapons developed by small businesses (many of them highly creative) and to provide recommendations for procurement. i have some experience in this field, as our volunteer organization has been searching for innovative products for a full year. i have also been asked to continue updating my facebook page as time allows. i recently received statistics about the soldiers i trained at the start of the war:   7% are dead.   18% are injured and can no longer serve.   4% are either prisoners of war or missing. this means that after three years of war, i have suffered only 29% losses. of course, i cannot take full credit for this, as they have learned so much more during this time than i could teach them. but perhaps a small seed i planted has grown into a strong plant. thats why i am eager to return to combat training under real conditions. many criticize me for my age, but let me give an example from the sports world: raimo helminen, the finnish hockey player, played at the finnish elite level for 26 years. he said: of course, i have some injuries, and my speed has decreased, but i compensate by being in the right place at the right time and making decisive passes. ive also been forced to analyze the game quickly and anticipate to position myself correctly. the same applies to me now. my experience from traveling to the frontlines and visiting the zero line is a significant advantage.
