Ukraine War Experience | Body Armor

Body armor in modern war — lessons from Ukraine.
Thorn & Elba: https://tgorigins.com/pages/thorn-elba

-------

Most plate carriers leave the lower abdomen, pelvis, groin and upper femoral vessels open. In this video I explain why large-scale war without air dominance turns groin protection into basic infantry kit, and give a 4-point system to judge any setup — size, movement, mounting and rear protection.

You’ll see a full comparison and market rundown of Western and Ukrainian groin protectors, from Crye Precision LAP, AVIS and ProtecUA to M-Tac, Ballistica, UkrArmor, Suputnyk, Velmet, ProfArmor, and ATAKA, with real discussion of segmented construction, under-plate mounting, price per square inch, combat seats and the “speed is armor” argument.

Spoken by a 2022 veteran of an international volunteer unit in Ukraine and featuring the Thorn groin protector and Elba combat seat developed by Trophy Gear Origins in collab with ENSIS Gear.

The Bitcoin Dictator

Salvadorans. Not you. And almost nobody in Bitcoin will say it.

A NOTE ON WHO THIS IS AIMED AT:

This video is not an attack on El Salvador or its people. For five years I've filmed extraordinary Salvadorans who changed their lives with Bitcoin from the bottom up, because they chose to.

If a state is going to wrap itself in the Bitcoin flag, those of us who believe in what that flag means have a duty to hold it to those values.

WITH THANKS TO:
Claudia Ortiz — one of only three opposition legislators in El Salvador's 60-seat parliament — for speaking on the record at the Oslo Freedom Forum.
Mike Peterson (Bitcoin Beach) for being one of the few voices on the ground willing to warn the community about state overreach.
The Human Rights Foundation and the Oslo Freedom Forum.
