The military is used to the smell of death. They also make surprise attacks at night to reduce the shock of the realities of war.
Ukrainian soldiers undergoing training in France were prepared for the stench of corpses on the battlefield by strewing animal carcasses in the trenches. This was stated in a Politico article published on Monday, November 13.
As French officials explained to journalists, in addition to military tactics, Ukraine asked France to prepare future soldiers for harsh combat conditions and to work in a cold, noisy environment , without sleeping for a long time.
It was noticed that the carcasses of dead animals were scattered in the trenches so that the Ukrainians would get used to the smell of death. French troops also resorted to surprise attacks at night.
“When they come to the front, there’s bound to be shock, and my job is to minimize that shock,” said Captain Xavier, one of the instructors.
French instructors also use artillery and grenades to simulate air strikes and observe how Ukrainians react to wounded soldiers.
It was previously reported that the Czech Republic continued to train the Ukrainian military for a year.
Let us remind you that the Ministry of Defense reported that almost all NATO and EU countries have joined training programs for the Ukrainian military.
