65-Year-Old Volunteer Fighting In Ukraine Says This Is No Time For Rest

Volunteer soldier Oleksandr Taran was 58 when he tried to enlist to defend his country after Russia seized Crimea in 2014 -- but he was told by the Ukrainian military then that they had no need for his help. He is now 65 and the commander of a small volunteer unit. He says now is no time for a rest.
