A young graduate only six months into his dream job joins the 125th Territorial Defence Brigade of the Ukrainian Army in February 2022. Going off to war to defend his loved ones from the Russians, Dron' came to understand that the Ukrainian experience differs fundamentally from that of writer-combatants of the past.
