»Nullpunkt« - das bezeichnet die Demarkationslinie, die wie ein Schnitt durch die Ostukraine verläuft, und die ukrainische Armee von separatistischen Kämpfern aus dem Gebiet der abtrünnigen, Kreml-hörigen sogenannten »Volksrepubliken« trennt. Daß auf unserem Kontinent Kriegszustand herrschte, lag bisher außerhalb der Wahrnehmung der meisten Europäer, die Bedrohung nur theoretisch kannten und Frieden noch - oder wieder - als Selbstverständlichkeit ansehen durften. Der junge bekannte ukrainische Autor Artem Tschech war selbst in Kiew noch ziemlich unvertraut mit dem Krieg in seinem Land, als ihn im Mai 2015 seine Einberufung erreichte. Er fand sich an die Frontlinie im Donbass versetzt. Sein Bericht Nullpunkt schildert, womit er sich auf einmal konfrontiert sah. Erzählt wird von der Verwandlung eines Zivilisten der Generation FacDigital und What¿s App in einen Soldaten. Angefangen mit dem Drill im Ausbildungslager in brütender Hitze in der Steppe, zwischen Giftschlangen. Die schlecht versorgte Truppe wird dabei von der Bevölkerung durchgefüttert - bombardiert von »Nutella«, Kuchen und Schinken. Aber es folgen die realen Schützengräben, den »Feind« im Visier, jederzeit bedroht vom Tod. Doch nicht Kampfhandlungen stehen im Mittelpunkt vom Tschechs Bericht, sondern das innere Erleben einer Art Parallelwelt. Dort wächst etwas zusammen, was sonst nicht zusammenfindet: Menschen verschiedenster sozialer wie geographischer Herkunft, voller Vorurteile über einander, lernen, sich zu sehen - eine identitätsstiftende Erfahrung von Zusammengehörigkeit. Tschech verweigert sich jeglichem Nationalismus, schreibt über das Unheroische, dem er sich gegenübersieht. Seine Kameraden verfolgen skeptisch oder stolz, daß einer der Ihren ihre Geschichten schreibt: »Schreib das auf, Tschech!« Sein Blick fördert eine Fülle auch komischer Situationen zutage. Das Lachen aber vergeht uns immer wieder.

Excellent value, consistent fit, cool, comfortable and durable.
Size: Large, Color: Army Green
I have purchased 20 plus of these shirts in the past six months. The first batch in spring, figuring if any inconsistencies or quality issues arose upon delivery, no problem. Amazon's return policy has always been hassle free. After trying on the fourth shirt and noticing no outstanding flaws or differences, all were simply opened, laundered and hung on a hanger. The material is 100 percent cotton, but assuming they are removed from the dryer immediately (medium heat) - no ironing necessary. No appreciable shrinking is observed and no outliers in the batch. My sport shirt size is men's US large regular fit. Other relevant sizes - 17.5 inch neck, 46 inch shoulders, 34 inch sleeves and 36 inch waist. Overall fit of these shirts is of appropriate roominess without bagginess. Shirt tail length is spot on, work dress code requires tucked in, and they stay tucked in. Casual requires not tucked in, and unless I am reaching for the sky with both hands while on tip toes, the shirt tail/ belt line is not breached. The sleeve length could have been extended by an inch since they taper to an elastic cuff, requiring that the sleeves are pulled back to original position following an extended reach. But given the choice, the sleeves as is are preferred over a straight cut without the elastic cuff. As an upgrade to the T shirt appearance of the shirt tail when not tucked in, the side seams end with a reinforced, one inch inverted V, a feature not typical in this price range. To date, durability has not been an issue. Fraying, fabric pilling and fading have not occurred. It is quite difficult, if not impossible, to differentiate the age of two duplicate color shirts purchased in two separate batches. Again, excellent value, consistent fit, cool, comfortable and durable!

An Extinct Breed - Get before they are gone
Size: Medium, Color: Red
In my day polos used to be soft thick 100 % cotton with generous sleeves covering the upper arm till above the elbows and collars standing high and grand and covering the back of the neck till below the hairline. They had substantial structure/body (shape that held) and ultra comfortable soft cotton. This was my go to piece of clothing to step out in (as opposed to round neck collarless T-Shirts that I wore only at home or for sporting activities). However, this simple good thing was not to be taken for granted. As time went by, I watched in horror this simple evergreen staple slowly vanish - being replaced by plastic, toxic, carcinogenic trash (synthetic, polyester, 'performance', 'hi-tech') being passed as clothing riding solely on deceptive/misleading/convincing marketing and rapidly transient 'fast fashion trends'. These pieces of junk being passed as 'performance polos'/'hi-tech' had no 'body', clung to your skin like plastic, caused my sensitive skin to itch, with arms so short as if there was shortage of clothing material in the world and were of such thin cheap uncomfortable material that I would wonder how in the world do people put these on their bodies. The 'trend' continued ... Fast forward to the present day, finding the 'cotton polo of my youth' is like finding a dinosaur. The polo I grew up with is practically extinct - replaced by trash made with ever cheaper feeling and more toxic materials. Its a win win for the corporates/brands - cheap synthetic lab created materials astronomically marked up (riding on advertisement) - filling the corporate pockets unlike never before and successfully 're-programming' the minds and purchasing behavior of the new generation to accept, get used to, and even get addicted to such toxic 'hi-tech' trash. As for the manufacturing ? No problem - hire some MBA's (with zero knowledge/passion for good quality textile/garment manufacturing) - their sole purpose to be 'maximizing profits' for the next 'earnings report' and they would find the 'cheapest' offshore factory to outsource the manufacturing to. This being a continuous process - if you get a cheaper bid from another factory, just switch to it. No wonder you can never get consistent material, sizing, quality for the exact same product purchased even months apart. Not just that - even brands that sold fantastic quality 100 % cotton polos at a very reasonable price like Tommy Hilfiger etc went STEEP DOWNHILL. A Tommy Hilfiger polo being sold today is NOWHERE NEAR anything like the quality they had even a few years ago (even though still being theoritically 100 % cotton, the quality (material, cut) now is absolutely junk - in fact they went from being my favorite Polo Shirts (thick, soft, cloud like cotton with generous neck and sleeves and amazing body, texture and shape and in high quality colors and finish) to absolutely shockingly unwearable pieces of garbage (thin, rough, itchy cotton with skimpy sleeves and flat collars and dull cheap finsih and colors with NO lusture, body whatsoever). I always wish I had seen this day come. I would have stocked up on a lifetim's supply of 'real' clothing when they were still available. Given the above, I am extremely surprised (pleasantly) by this Amazon Essentials Cotton Polo. This is 100 % cotton, has generous non-skimpy sleeves and has decent material and shape reminiscent of the 100 % cotton polo I am habituated to from my time. Quality of material wise - it is about 65% - 70% of the cotton polos of yesteryears - BUT - even THAT - is like finding diamond (or a dinosaur) in these abhorrent-clothing-times for the 100 % cotton polo lover. Get this before the 'real cotton polo' is gone for good. I think I may be getting a few.
