'Star Wars' actor Mark Hamill sends 500 drones to Ukraine
https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/2022/10/21/star-wars-actor-mark-hamill-sends-500-drones-to-ukraine/He may have hung up his lightsaber as Luke Skywalker in 2019, but Star Wars actor Mark Hamill is still fighting.
This time, its for Ukraine.
During an interview with Bloomberg Radios Sound On program, the actor revealed he helped send 500 drones to Ukraine.
Very simply, Ukraine needs drones, Hamill told Bloomberg. They define war outcomes, they protect their land, their people, they monitor the border, theyre eyes in the sky.
Hamill serves as an ambassador for Ukraines Army of Drones project, working to combat the Russian invasion, which began in February.

You know who isn't sending aid to Ukraine? The GOP.

It is vital to the world order that Ukraine oust the Russian invaders. If I can pony-up a little money to help, I'm in.
May the Force be with them.
Slava Ukraini!
