Major Sven Olsen’s final assignment with the National Guard, Operation Safe Skies, involved bringing F16 fighter jets to Ukraine for EuroCup 2012, the country's first international event as a new sovereign state after separating from Russia. Strained U.S.-Russia relations and Russia's objection to Ukraine's independence fueled intense efforts to prevent the U.S. from delivering the jets. This emotional story comes full circle when Russia invades Ukraine, with Major Olsen’s wife’s family caught in the crosshairs.
