Secret soldier. Robert F. Kennedy’s grandson Conor Kennedy revealed that he volunteered to fight in the Ukraine war and was “willing to die there.”“Like many people, I was deeply moved by what I saw happening in Ukraine over the past year.
I wanted to help,” the New York native, 28, wrote in a lengthy Instagram post on October 14. “When I heard about Ukraine’s International Legion, I knew I was going, and I went to the embassy to enlist the next day.”Conor shared that he only told one person about his decision to serve and only told one person his real name while overseas.
