“But the platoon commander is always with us,” say ATO participants. - The platoon commander is his own boy! If so, he can drink with us.”
Next, the journalist describes his interlocutors.
“46-year-old Vitek looks more like a homeless person than a regular army soldier,” writes the author of the report. – Under the left eye you can see the old mark of a “lantern”, instead of boots on the peasant’s legs there are galoshes with adhered pieces of greasy mud. A dirty sweatshirt is worn over a shirt of indeterminate color. Despite his unpresentable appearance, the fighter is in a cordial mood. Five minutes ago he tried to give me a live grenade, but I prudently refused the dubious “souvenir”. My interlocutors reek of fumes. Hanging around Stas’s neck is a shabby “bitch” – a shortened AKSU assault rifle. Vitek is armed with the same F-1 grenade that he tried to give me. From time to time he takes out the “efka” and defiantly tosses it in his palms. Stas, in turn, immediately makes weak attempts to take her away.” “Disarming” turns into a dangerous drunken romp - the grenade passes from hand to hand, but in the end it ends up in Vitka’s pocket.”
