Ukraine’s ‘unicorn’ LGBTQ soldiers head for war

Hey it’s officially gay pride month! We here at Scattered Shots love to celebrate the most degenerate month long holiday known! Let start if off with this heart warming story from the Ukrainian front. Now you can feel good knowing where that 58 billion is going!.

Who got to the front first, the gay private or the straight soldier?

The gay guy. His shit was already packed!

KYIV, May 31 (Reuters) – As volunteer fighters Oleksandr Zhuhan and Antonina Romanova pack for a return to active duty, they contemplate the unicorn insignia that gives their uniform a rare distinction – a symbol of their status as an LGBTQ couple who are Ukrainian soldiers.

Members of Ukraine’s LGBTQ community who sign up for the war have taken to sewing the image of the mythical beast into their standard-issue epaulettes just below the national flag.

The practice harks back to the 2014 conflict when Russia invaded then annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine, “when lots of people said there are no gay people in the army,” actor, director and drama teacher Zhuhan told Reuters as he and Romanova dressed in their apartment for their second three-month combat rotation

“So they (the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community) chose the unicorn because it is like a fantastic ‘non-existent’ creature.”
