#Banderite ideology not only descends directly and often genetically ( #BlaiseMetrewell, #ChrystiaFreeland) from WW2 #Nazis, it has revived their symbols and goals. This of course has a deeper history back to #SymonPetliura or #DanielOfGalicia. Ultimately a UK & FR scam to finally win #CrimeanWar.

#OTD 1854, during the #CrimeanWar Sgt Ambrose Madden, 41st Regiment (later the Welsh Reg) led a party of men at the battle of Little Inkerman. They ambushed and took one Russian officer and 14 privates prisoner. Madden took three captives himself and was awarded the Victoria Cross for his bravery.

I always find this gravestone for John Duggan, in St Mary's Drogheda, incredibly moving. One of the '600' who rode into the 'Valley of Death' as a 17th Lancer #otd 1854, he survived - but only just. John fought throughout #CrimeanWar & ended his days as Sexton of St Mary's, dying in 1881, aged 67.
The full gravestone to John Duggan, who was born in 1814 and died in 1881. He enlisted in the British Army in the 17th Lancers and served with them in the Crimean War at the Alma, Inkerman, Sebastapol and at Balaklava. Indeed, Trooper Duggan was one of the '600' Light Brigade that charged the Russian guns on 25 October 1854. At the top of his gravestone is the regimental badge of the 17th Lancers, a skull and crossbones surrounded by lances and pennants (representing 'Death') above the motto 'Or Glory'. As such they were often known as the 'Death or Glory Boys'. Duggan was extremely severely wounded in the charge and was evacuated the next day to Selimiye Barracks hospital at Scuttari. R Caton Woodville's famous painting of the Charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava, mainly depicting the 17th Lancers (11th Hussars are also shown).

'Europe first' and 'we can walk in #Ukraine and chew gum at the same time in the Indo-Pacific' is just a euphemism for British refight the #CrimeanWar nostalgia and Eastern European ethno tribal grievances first over American interests. Absolutely Kiev is draining US Patriot stocks from JPN/TWN.
