The Battle of Slaviansk & Eastern Ukraine

The Ukrainian forces’ victories this week in the war with Russia reminded me of the wonderful song “The Battle of New Orleans.”

I dedicate this chorus to the men and women of the Ukrainian armed forces, the National Guard of Ukraine and the volunteer battalions who are fighting, dying and winning for Ukraine against imperial Russia.

We fired our guns and the British kept a’comin.
There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago.
We fired once more and they began to runnin’ on
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.

… Keep on firing your guns and keep the Russians a runnin’ all the way to Moscow.

Слава Україні! Glory to Ukraine!
