Russian, surrounded by ISIS, calls down airstrike on himself. There’s heroism and then there’s stuff like this, stuff that just makes you feel humble.
Officer: They are outside, conduct the airstrike now, please hurry, this is the end, tell my family I love them and I died fighting for my motherland.
Command: Negative, return to green line.
Officer: I can’t, command. I am surrounded, they are outside, I don’t want them to take me and parade me. Conduct the airstrike. They will make a mockery of me and this uniform. I want to die with dignity and take all these bastards with me. Please, my last wish, conduct the airstrike, they will kill me either way.
Command: Please confirm your request.
Officer: They are outside, this is the end commander, thank you. Tell my family and my country I love them. Tell them I was brave and I fought until I could no longer. Please take care of my family, avenge my death, good bye commander, tell my family I love them.
Command: [No response, orders the airstrike]
