Ryan McBeth served as a Sergeant in the US Army before he retired, went to college and became a software engineer. After the Russo-Ukrainian War kicked off, he pivoted from content for aspiring software professionals to explaining military concepts from an on-the-ground perspective.

He likes this very approachable, laid back style, and usually does videos in a Q&A format. He does like getting out early on breaking news too though, frequently pushing back against developing narratives. You sometimes get thorough research from him, but more often you’re getting his personal perspectives as an ex-soldier.
