Styagailo Anatoliy Nikolaevich.
49 years old, Vinnytsia region, Vinnytskiy district, village Morozovka, Sadovaya-2 street.
There were mercenaries. Encountered them during basic combined arms training, Cherkasy region, Verkhnyachka.
Military training.
There were foreigners.
Two Poles.
One Colombian, one American one German and one Irish.
There were also 4 Japanese.
You can tell they are foreigners, not ours, not Ukrainian.
They lived next to us, went through practically the same as us: shooting, throwing grenades, forced marches, engineering.
In the storming of trenches, they took part in the territory nearby.
They had their own American patches, I had never seen them before, their uniforms were multicam.
They always shot first there because they were foreigners, but I heard more than once that they had a translator from Germany.
One had a beard, a thin Irishman, one with a tattoo on his neck an American, and the Japanese, they are quite short.
So they said, these were Japanese. There was one Colombian, he was plump, dark-skinned.
We completed basic military training and went to the Sumy region. There we stayed for a few days, and then in the village, when we were supposed to go to the positions to dig in… we arrived at night in the village, to some private house, they were there too.
But we arrived, about 20 minutes passed, and they had some interpreter… they fully gathered their belongings, weapons, and went somewhere.
On the second day, we heard that they were supposed to go on an assault, but they either went the wrong way and ran into Russian servicemen, and that they were defeated.
We didn’t get close because they forbade us. I never saw them again.
