My mind is blown from the ability to get so “close” to the Wagner action, while sitting in comfort, at home. 

OpSec is just a different beast today. 

So many thoughts.

My only commentary about the situation is that when outpost win local hearts and minds, they can begin to develop a new sense of a unified identity, where local residents and troops become a bonded through war.

This new sense of community causes confusion for the larger country that is fighting a battle….

…against an enemy that is foreign to the enemy of the outpost trying to care for their new community. Especially if that outpost has begun to feel abandoned from the larger community of the war. This is apparent in the things being said and the actions of locals that are comfortable around the troops.
