Jake Taylor, callsign Tango, a US military veteran from Dallas, Texas, arrived in Ukraine before the start of the SMO in 2022. He initially worked as an English teacher in Kyiv, then joined The Chosen Company as a unit commander. He was wounded in late July 2023 alongside 27 other members. The post also alleges that he and his unit scammed followers by soliciting donations for personal use rather than military gear.
