From the article (thanks u/BlackMarine and u/Gdiworog):

Methodically, the soldier responds to his cousin’s argument, stressing the benefits that the United States has gained from its involvement in the war, the good use of American equipment on the front lines… “I was disappointed. When JD justifies his distrust of Zelensky by the “reports” he has seen, I thought I was going to choke,” he says indignantly. “His own cousin was on the front lines. I could have told him the truth, without pretense, without personal interest. He never tried to find out more,” he sighs. However, Nate has tried several times to contact his cousin. “From Ukraine, reaching a senator is not easy,” he admits. “But I left messages at his office. I never heard from him,” the soldier laments.

I love this excerpt (from the original article, translated):

Trench warfare

“He was much older than us. Much older than the other foreign volunteers, even”, recalls Dima, who fought with him in the battalion, nicknamed “Da Vinci’s Wolves”, after the unit’s founder. “On the first day, we went to the shooting range. He took a simple Kalashnikov, without a sight, and set up 800 meters from the target. Everyone laughed at him. When he hit the metal target five times in a row, the laughter stopped”, he laughs. In the evening, the unit’s officers gather to plan upcoming operations. “A lieutenant was listing our equipment needs. The commander interrupted him: ‘I only need Nate and his Kalashnikov.’ That’s how Nate got into the group”, adds another of his comrades.
