My Virtual Introduction to Pete
I first came across combat medic Pete in Ukraine through the Greg Terry Experience YouTube channel. In March 2024, Greg Terry and Professor Gerdes Explains launched a successful YouTube appeal for donations to raise money for several armoured evacuation ambulances for frontline combat medics in Ukraine. Pete’s casevac group Project Konstantin is in the process of receiving two of the armoured ambulances. Pete played a vital part in this appeal, by recording several videos for the campaign. The video below includes one of Pete’s videos for the appeal.
