Ukrainians requested two types of tissue. One is so small you can barely see it. It’s a thin one-inch square used for eye injuries. The others are skin grafts that are a couple of inches long for small wounds. “We gathered up the tissue that they needed, package it, send it over to Germany, where they had trucks going in to aid Ukraine,” Barfield said.
