The US military isn't involved in Ukraine. We know this, because there are still Russians in Ukraine.

The Ukrainians have been holding off Russia for two years, using spare parts and out dated Western equipment. The only reason they're still in a conflict is the threat of nukes. Otherwise Putin would be lined up next to Hussein and Gadddafi.
