British vigilante's photo diary from fighting IS in Syria for six months.

A British freedom fighter has documented his bloody stint spent fighting so-called Islamic State in a photo diary. University student Josh Walker, 26, wanted to fight for “a better world” so lied to his parents to fly over to the Middle East and join up with The People's Protection Units better known as YPG. His primary role was to translate and help other volunteers integrate into the militia forces, made up of Kurdish, Arabs, Western volunteers and the Syriac Military Council. He was trained at an academy for a month where he learned Kumanji before being sent out on to the frontline in war-torn Rojava, which was under siege on a daily basis.
