Part 4/10:
Once in Ukraine, Spigset described a chaotic entry into the ranks of the Foreign Legion, where he met an eclectic mix of international fighters, each with different backgrounds and motivations for joining the cause. His first contact with the Foreign Legion felt surreal; he was greeted by an informal gathering of soldiers smoking in a shack.
Spigset’s unique military history and technical expertise led to him being offered a role as a drone operator. While the majority of soldiers in the Foreign Legion found themselves assigned to conventional combat duties, Spigset leveraged his existing skills and experience to play a more versatile role that included reconnaissance and supporting various teams in need.
