At Clear Sky, Lozgachev has been interpreting between U.S. and Ukrainian pilots during mission briefs. “This has been an awesome experience,” he said. “Being utilized as an interpreter for the pilots allows me to be part of the focal point of this exercise, which is getting the Ukrainians up to NATO standards.” (Courtesy photo)
