An ex-British army serviceman has crossed into war-torn Ukraine after admitting: "I don't know what the f*** I'm doing here!".
Stephen Gartside, 57, from Nottingham, plans to use his military experience with the Royal Signals to help fight Vladimir Putin 's invaders.
He flew into Krakow, Poland, on Saturday and then took a train to Przemysl, before boarding another train to the Ukrainian city of Lviv.
