Going to fight as a mercenary for Russia in the Ukraine conflict. Is there anything which is important that I need to know?

Here are a few tidbits of advice:

1.If you are assigned to a unit with a lot of prisoners, you are probably not long for this world

2.You may want to memorize the “I want to Live” surrender hotline. Over 6,500 Russian soldiers have used it so far. It is +38 066 580 34 98 and +38 093 119 29 84.

3.You should bring your own body armor and weapons. The Russians are handing out rifles designed in 1891. You probably should bring your own sleeping bag and food.

4.You may want to stay away from anyone named Igor Jenkins. He is deadly

5.Before you leave you may want to practice your sprinting. When retreating you don’t want to be the last one. Russian soldiers have shown tremendous prowess in their sprinting.

6.If you are an officer be sure and watch your back. A large number have been shot by their own men.
