Don't worry Ukraine - Florida's got your back...

200 part-time US soldiers from Florida are in Ukraine right now training Kiev's troops to take on Putin's 130,000 tanks and crack troops with rocket launchers...

American troops have been in Ukraine, training Kiev's forces to use 'bunker buster' rocket launchers amid fears President Putin is about to invade as he continues to move Russian forces to the border. 
Soldiers from the Florida National Guard were seen on a firing range in Lviv, near Ukraine's border with Poland, on Sunday training Kiev's forces to use M141 Bunker Defeat Munitions - around 100 of which have been sent by Washington as part of military aid shipments aimed at deterring a Russian attack. 
Around 200 Florida guardsmen are currently deployed to Ukraine, where the US has maintained a military presence since 2015, and are tasked with providing training and support to the country's armed forces. 'Bunker buster' rockets are designed to blow apart concrete, brick and sandbag positions, and have been used by the US since 1999.
