18-year-old signed a military contract in mid-August, eager to fight Ukrainians and gain status as the “top guy” in his district. A month later, he was in Kursk, where his commander sent him into a meat assault. He regretted his decision, but it was too late—and by September 14th, he was dead.

  1. He admitted he was an idiot and regrets signing the contract an hour before being sent to the meat grinder.

  2. Well yeah. Young men have a heroic view of war until they experience it firsthand. *All Quiet on the Western Front* portrays this very attitude. This has been known throughout history, and it is not something unique to just Russia.

  3. He got up extra early before anyone else on the day he knew would be his last. That is smart. Even smarter would’ve been to use that time to run towards the Ukraine front line to surrender. Have them send back a drone with a speaker and say “Greetings, comrades! This is comrade Maloy. Follow my instructions if you want to live.”

  4. They lack a human soul. The death of their young men ellicts the same emotion as squashing a bug.
