Nawrocki spent 20 years in the Marine Corps before retiring in 2021, and was deployed on several missions to Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, and California.

Nawrocki, also known as "Fat Stacks" by his colleagues in the Marines, was a gunnery sergeant at the Marine Barracks Washington.

International Legion For the Defense of Ukraine:

Families of fallen soldiers receive a compensation of 15 million UAH, which is approximately $400,000.

You get the standard pay of a Ukrainian soldier and it varies depending on the conditions of the service. Your payment will be in UAH currency to a local bank account. The approximate amount in USD is the following: $550 per/month behind the frontline, $1100 per/month for service in a dangerous zone, and up to $4800 per/month for combat deployment. Please note, that those numbers are just an approximation since exchange rates can change and also some roles and units receive additional bonuses.

I like (bad word, more so surprised) at how the closer to the frontline you get it ramps up so drastically. While that is true in many militaries; the difference between 550 behind lines and 4000 on the lines for a nation actually at war is almost hilarious.

If these numbers keep going up I wouldn't be surprised if we have more and more contractors heading to Ukraine.

Almost a tenfold increase. More with bonuses.
