After 2 bruising years, many US volunteers are disillusioned or dead.
Like boo fucking hoo, the vast majority of these guys were war criminals who thought this would just be like when they got to gun down Iraqis in the 2000s again, and the rest were wannabe sexpats and war tourists (and the article even says as much). The only ones I feel sympathy for are the dumb redditors who got caught up in all the propaganda about how they were saving democracy or something and volunteered only to get used up as cannon fodder in their first two weeks.
