The Navy SEAL Fighting in Ukraine: Daniel Swift and the Pull of Combat
On today's "Hot Wash," RCD contributor John Waters talks to the authors of one the site's most popular recent articles, “The Navy SEAL Who Went to Ukraine Because He Couldn’t Stop Fighting.” The tortured story of Daniel Swift, a decorated Navy SEAL who went AWOL, only to end up on the frontlines of Ukraine's war with Russia. It's a story about the complicated relationship some of America's most experienced veterans have with combat, the challenges of returning home, the desire to make a difference, and the pull to return to the fight. Brett Forest and Ian Lovett are journalists for the Wall Street Journal who cover Ukraine.
