There have been plenty of stories about brave Ukrainians taking up arms since the conflict in their country started back in late February. But the story of the soldiers in the Bob Marley Volunteer Defence Squad is like nothing else.
The group of 10 or so Ukrainians first came together to defend their homeland when Russia annexed Crimea in 2014. Along with a deep love of their country and the late reggae icon - whose image adorns their battle fatigues - the Bob Marley squad share a love of good wine, food, music and, of course, weed.
In fact, their motto states, roughly, that if you're stoned you can't be killed. Group member Dmytro Dubas joins the show from a hospital in Ukraine to discuss the group's unique approach to warfare.
