The original Burn 16oz is 199mg caffeine per can but you still come out better with the strike gum and it taste's great better than warm energy drinks
Your best segway to date!
now look at how "filthy" the ukrainian ones are
I guess this army veteran has never fought in a real war. LOL
Thanks Paul for the update ,.. very interesting about not drinking warm water/ less caffeine drinks with doses of sugar … 💙💛💙
I suspect this guy's impressive stash was probably gathered from the rest of his unit who didn't make it back from an assault.
@@korsu1234 I was wondering if it might be further north, where Russia has not really been pushing much for months. To even have picture frames does seem odd.
It's a damn trench lmfao, do Ukrainians have lavish mansion trenches? You people are so desperate to downplay Russia it's ridiculous. It's a war, they are trenches, both sides are living and dying in them.
@@korsu1234🤡
No, these are the things of a small team
@@korsu1234What little elf are you jealous of?! You'll meet the owner soon if you don't run away...😂😂😂
Wouldn't it be just crazy if one these days the Ukranians cleared a Russian trench and found half a pallet of strike gum?
Oh Nooooo don't even say it! Russia will win the war if they get hold of Paul's gum!
money is money who cares?
War is a racket.
LOL
It would be unfortunate but slightly amusing. At least the Russian buying them would be giving some of their money to Ukraine.
couple of things to note, when he spoke about the grenade, he mentioned that its a 1990 manufactured grenade, and so is the spare fuse.
Also, the AK was an AK-74, not an AK-101, the russian soldier was even joking saying "look at this "new rifle", a fucking '74", it was also someone elses, as his own rifle was destroyed by a drone strike
Thank you.
Thanks for the translation would love to know what else he was talking about lol
You gotta love how Paul's eyes light up every time he gets handed an easy and organic transition for plugging StrikeGum, the best energy gum on the market
Yes, maybe this is the hole point of this vid... To promote his gum

We use those stoves in Finland a lot in army. We usually are more worried if fire goes out in the winter. Everyone have 2 hours of firewatch when in rest...
That package from home reminded me when I visited a museum at Hadrianus Wall where they had these tree bark letters saved from roman times. So this one letter describes how one stationed soldiers mother sent him some extra socks (since he had complained about the cold weather) and some kind of hard bread treats. Times change and yet somehow they dont in some fashion.

@CombatVeteranReacts it's a pity you don't understand any slavic language (to quite big extent, we do understand each other without learning specific language, like russian, ukrainian, polish, chech, slovak, slovien, chroatian, bulgarian, ect), you would get how derogatory his language and comments are, especially abound the grenade (he disrespects especially that model from year 2019) and some few stuff. Regarding the AK, he also told that he lost his one. He was prising few stuff as well.
Could you give the jist of what he says that is derogatory? I couldn't understand all the words
CORRECTION: _"...he also __-told-__ _*_said*_*_ that he lost his _*_only*_*_ one."_
@@customfantasyhotwheels well, english is not my native language, I do make mistakes. Thanks for pointing them out, I will try to remember and correct myself.
You are right, i should use "said" as it is more focused on words rarher than meaning of those words (told). As for "his only one" - oh, it will be harder to remember and use correctly... 🤔 it this particular case, i think i should simply use "he lost his", but I'm not sure.
He wasn't emphasizing that it was his only one gun, he rarher told us that he had such gun which he lost - we don't know if it was his only gun or if he got some OTHER replacement. By the way he said it, I wouldn't suspect he got same gun (if any), rather I would suspect he got some slightly worse (there was no big regret in his voice).
Anyways, thanks for corrections 👍
@@Overlord99762 slavs are very creative in showing disrespect in swer words or swearing in jok-ish way , ect 🤣 it is really hard to translate.
czech and slovak are useless when trying to understand russian or ukranian, czech is my native language and slovak is super close to it, more like a dialect than two different languages
with a bit of practice it's possible to understand polish pretty well, but in czech there is a LOT of german influence and very little from other slavic languages (slovak was reconstructed based on czech)
so honestly i understand russian as much as an average englishman despite my first language being a slavic one :D
Hey, great channel watch it daily. Just FYI: Carbon Dioxide (CO2) isn't great, but Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a killer. Keep up the great work!!!
Co2 will give you a monster headache... Co won't ...lol
You beat me to it.
Pretty much this. Been around wood stoves my whole life and my conscript time. I have seen and slept many dugouts and tents with wood stoves installed and never have I herd some one dying from carbon dioxide poisoning or the more dangerous one monoxide poisoning. About 0-1 conscripts die per year during the service and it's all over the news. Never have I heard someone dying from stove related incidents, even some tent fires.
1-41IN 3rdIBCT 1st AD Ft. Bliss. Had the pleasure and honor of serving with your unit in 2011-2012. I was on COP Nerkh when you guys took that mass cal. event. We used those MPs like infantry a few times and were hardly ever disappointed in them. The only time I can remember being mad at yall was whoever was gunning the .50 on a Maxpro that belonged to yall and it was in single shot mode basically. No head space and timing done. I remember us giving yall the newer modified M2A1 .50s cus you didnt need to HSandT it. And came with a nifty safety switch under the butterfly trigger. I was the FSNCO for Alpha Company at Nerkh and responsible for all indirect and air assests for Nerkh valley to include for FOB airborne.
We used a propane Colman stove to make coffee and tea but, all of our rations were either MREs or dehydrated meal cups.
Thats a wood fire stove with a double lined chimney, standard heater in the region
We from the uk have tea we can't do without it, we even have a tea maker in our tanks

Not Carbon Dioxide but Carbon monoxide is a far greater risk, and it is caused by partial combustion of carbon-containing compounds like wood in that stove.
yeah that's probably what he meant to say.
Yeah that stove would scare the crap out of me. Given the state of the place, a gas alarm would be out of the question.
Regarding the wood burning stove, it's Carbon Monoxide, the silent killer, (Not Dioxide, CO2) that is the risk and the reason all gasses need to be sent up the chimney.
Carbon Monoxide is x500 more efficient at attaching it's self to Red Blood Cells (haemoglobin) than Oxygen. So Blood Oxygen levels decrease with every breath that contains Carbon Monoxide.
Carbon Dioxide is exhaled by humans (all mammals) and also used to put the bubbles fizzy drinks. If the CO2 were lethal no one would ever leave a pub alive.
We humans have an acutely sensitive feel for co2. This is the feeling of "I can't get enough air", and the responce is triggered by the co2 levels in the lungs being too high. It is important to know that we can't accurately sence oxygen deprivation. This is why you can breathe helium or laughing gas until you go unconscious. We convert oxygen to co2 by breathing, but if you don't breathe in any oxygen, you won't produce any of that co2 that should trigger the suffocation responce.
Yes, you will die from too much co2, but a person will cut their own feet off with an axe before succumbing to co2 poisoning. Try and hold your breath until you pass out, you just can't do it. (It is possible by hyperventilating first, but that is a way of cheating the responce by saturating your blood with oxygen)
Carbon monoxide on the other hand, is even worse because not only does it not trigger a suffocation responce, but the gas binds to your blood and prevents you from taking up oxygen all together.
25:42 He actually tells, he's the last one left, after the other were injured. Also, he lost his AK and doesn't care much about that. In general, his criticizing/sarcastic tone sounds like he's done with the situation.
Thanks for some translations 🙏
Sounds dejecting
Why are you lying? at this point in the video he says that they are killing ukr solders with Grad (MLRS) and FAB bombs. There is no sarcasm here. He simply talks about how he lives. And in the timecode that you gave, he says this phrase about Ukrainian soldiers with a smile.
@@user-yj1on3bf1v, “with a smile” ???
The guy’s face isn’t showing. You’re obviously the liar here. Nobody needs to understand Russian to see that you can’t see the guy’s face.
@@terjeoseberg990 I hear his intonation. To do this you need to know Russian. I can hear the intonation with which he speaks there. He simply talks about his life on the front line, what he eats and what things are stored there. There is one place in the video where he talks about the place where he sleeps, that he was left here alone, and before that someone else slept there. But that's all he said.
There is no depression or sarcasm in his voice anywhere.
Since we're talking about backpacks, I have a Swiss Army backpack from 2005 that still has never had anything break, and is still under a lifetime warranty.
The dug out has to be close to a reasonable sized settlement as there is mains power judging by the power leads everywhere so definately not on the front line
Dugout appears to be for 4 people judging by the size of the table and the number of mugs
Door has water stain 1/2 way up so has been sitting in water for a while which must have been higher than the duck boards on the floor .
I will assume that since he is the last survivor of 30 men he has accumulated all of their no longer needed gear .
IT must be in a very safe place also because of the stove which would give away the position every time they tossed a log on it .
They’re probably just chilling at this point after losing all the other guys

Exactly. Thats how it works in Europe.
Day/Month/Year
@@AnthonyOMulligan-yv9cg Or like here - year, month, day, so March 4th in this case.
@@Andrey_Belarus Will never get why first month then day … so many here got and get the US date wrong … but year first is like those nonsense hold my beer memes …
@@GanymedeXD Year first makes the greatest sense when writing it down, especially in a computerized environment. By putting it as YYYY-MM-DD, your dates will automatically arrange chronologically. Anything else is just being contrary for the sake of being contrary.
We have had in house fireplaces with no chimneys for about 15-20 thousand years. Pretty sure a little stove like that will be fine bro. :P
True. People have also died from carbon monoxide poisoning for ages too.
Even a very mild case of carbon monoxide poisoning will make you slow, sluggish and dizzy.
A poorly designed stove may be more dangerous than an open fire, because the open fire tends to die out, but the stove contains the heat better, keeping the embers burning even with a shortage of oxygen.
It is pretty easy to make these trench dugouts air tight, by the use of plastic tarps. A traditional lean-to or a simple hut built above ground will always let some air in, just by the way they are built.
One traditional type of shelter that can be almost completely air tight is an igloo, and they are notorious for causing carbon monoxide poisoning.
When your a soviet soldier who's life expectancy on the fields of Ukraine is less than a month well i suppose they dont worry about keeping there dugouts clean and tidy and shipshape.
If you were a Soviet soldier fighting in Ukraine in the year 2024 you would be worrying about nothing, because you would have mastered something that Einstein said would require travelling close to the speed of light (ie:time travel into the future).
Because the Soviet Union, therefore the Soviet military, ceased to exist on Dec 25 1991.
I think/hope what you actually meant to say was Russian soldier.
@@azzamat001Einstein … why? Makes no sense … Putin is sufficient! Many Russians start calling themselves Soviets again to express its not just Russia they feel dedicated to … the same many soldiers do … its Putin’s dream to restore the former glory of the Soviet Aera … means its not that far fetched to say ‘Soviet’ … of course to be correct its Russian soldiers … many Russians that I know refer to themselves as ‘Soviets’ again … correcting them they say what I mentioned the above … ‘what is with Ukraine and the other countries that belong to us? … hence to say Russia would be completely false they say.
Dear Paul, with the 'this is the real bug-out bag' segment you inspired me with a new way of thinking and got me to seriously prepare emergency supplies and medical aid supplies, which I have been very irresponsible about until now. I have 2 tiny boys in Japan, and the impending war with China, possible bombing, interdiction of trade including energy supplies, cyberwar, or earthquakes and tsunamis really called for better behavior from me, for years. We're in the process with my wife of preparing bags, stuffing them with all sorts of camping goodies, foodstuffs, tools, tarps and disposable raincoats, testing out emergency goods, buying powdered and instant tablet milk; but also stocking up on physical cash, rice, oil, peanut butter etc. Any day now there could be several more people alive in the world thanks to your videos. With gratitude and respect, your viewer and listener.
Pro tip from someone who has been through a tornado. Pick a few spots for you and the ones you care about to meet up in case you need to abandon your home. Getting back together with my family after that was a torturous process as my parents were at work and I was on my way home from school when it ripped through.
I'm a roofer who mainly reroofs existing houses. Typically there's a certain amount of rotten wood that would need to be changed out. Even at work I would conceal carry (it is the law in Florida). But religiously I would have massive amounts of sawdust and shingle granules on my trijicon red dot. So I did exactly as he said and would spray it with canned air every night. After about 6 months I told the girl at the dollar general, where I would buy it, what it was for. Come to find out they all thought I was huffing it lol.
You don’t need a bug out kit when you are dead in about 48 hours 😅. You need coffe, thats it
Dont you wonder how far this little shelter is from a Ukrainian shootout raid?
@@jjcdrumplayit’s probably pretty far because the stove would immediately give their location away.
Canned air is also excellent for starting fires in wood stoves when the air flow is insufficient.
I believe it's 4th of mars, not 3rd of april. Cause most people use YYYY-MM-DD format
I was gonna say, coz it's only Americans that get days and months confused lol
Was about to say this 😂
@oscarhagman8247 The Americans call it Freedom units.
No they don’t. America does sure but the rest of us use day month year.

This is just a random remote location. What did you expect to see there a modern military base at the middle of the field? Brother, it’s an army not a hotel for ticktockers….🤦♂️
Its most likely not that remote … or they use generator as they have electricity … compared to the other side’s dugouts it looks pretty high end …

Instant coffee is the worst. Replace it with dark rich Strike Gum.
Try mixing instant coffee into cold milk. Stir well and enjoy.
Carbon dioxide poisoning from that stove isn't likely unless the concentration is high but carbon monoxide is deadly in very low concentrations.
Video time line 7:10. MESSTIN
That is the original Wehrmacht model mess tin. we still use exactly that model in the Bundeswehr to this day.
Military surplus is actually great value for camping or really anything. It's cheaper and lasts longer than the fancy civilian brands.
I’m more surprised by the Nescafé, according to Nestle, they pulled out of Russia at the start of the war, two years in and somehow they still have Nescafé; either Nestle set up a subsidiary or they’re bypassing the sanctions with other countries support or smugglers.
With stove I think you mean CO not CO2.

Thanks for the video, Paul!
I feel like only the soldiers who are now experiencing trench warfare have a say on how and why they have things a certain way. They now have the experience most soldiers in other countries don’t have
Worth noting: if my Russian is correct he is saying that grenade was from the '90s
You are right
The date of that footage is March 4th 2024 not April 3rd👍
The moment that burn energy drink came on screen we all knew where Paul was going xD
BTW, some old school soldiers will just pour instant coffee into their mouths and warm water afterwards and basically turn your mouth into a brewing pot.
Somewhat reminds me of Uni … 😂 …
Don't get burned out, try Strike Gum instead! Stop being the plum, get the gum!
Fun fact: Freshly ground coffee wasn't widely available in the USSR, but freeze-dried coffee was. Most of it was of marginal quality, but it was cheap. Imported freeze-dried was often available at a premium. So freeze-dried coffee remains a staple in Russia today. This is because of logistical reasons in vast remote regions, but is often preferred by those that have access to the fresh product. It should be said that even the less expensive varieties are much better quality now and there was little variety at all in the "glorious Soviet Union".
I love that you made your own caffeine source.
21:40. - regarding superfluous straps on backpacks, our CADPAT daypacks/rucksacks and tacvests in CAF (🇨🇦) had this stretchy/elastic loop sewn into every strap so that you could roll/fold the straps up and secure them! On my civi backpack? I roll em’ up just the same, and use either small zip ties or small girl hair elastics to secure them, works great! I can’t have any straps hanging as they tangle up in my wheelchair 🦽 wheels real quick ha. But yeah, those loops integrated into all our backpacks and tacvests/rigs straps were genius and yet, such a simple solution ha! Wouldn’t be difficult to sew yourself a few (or just use hair elastics, accomplishes the same without the need for sewing) - I always keep a few elastics clipped on side straps anyway as they’re useful for so many things!
Dude!
Bicycle inner tube. Cut to whatever length (width?) you need.
It will change your strap game forever.
Throw a foot extra of it in your pack, because you'll keep finding new uses for it
Natural rubber is way more elastic but it doesn't like heat, or cold, or permanent tension, or any kind of oil. It is a b*tch of a material.
CO comes from a incomplete burn and CO2 from a complete, both are present in the stove emanations and both can kill you. CO binds with your hemoglobin and doesn't allow the oxygen to bind to it.
I fully appreciate your knowledge 🇬🇧✌️
4% CO2 is considered dangerous and just 0.02% CO can be fatal. CO2 in this case can be detected much quicker since it will come out together with smoke.
@@harleyquinn8202 CO2 can displace oxygen, and therefore give you the effect of hypoxemia, low oxygen level
Man are you retrarded? This is a war and you can't expect hotel conditions. You are ex-soldier and you can imagine conditions on the front line.
I was waiting for you to use the freeze dried coffee as a reason to get strike gum lol
Thanks, Paul.
If you haven't done so, you should try making a video comparing Storm Z Units and storm V, it's both bizarre and fascinating that Russia offers convicts nothing, but expects more from these units
Offer nothing? Freedom! No life in shitty prison! Expect more? Saving money … no more jail … being cannon fodder …
@@GanymedeXD storm V units, formerly known as Storm Z, no longer offer freedom. If you live, you're going back.
Epic inclusion of Strike Gum, maybe your best yet???
Reminds me of our firebase hootches, cept for the stove. We used c4 to heat c's. 5 star 🌟 compared to sleepn in the bush.
This soldier is defeated. You can hear it in his voice. Is he going to live to see the following day? He is self rationing. That's why he left the food out. One meal might have to be turned into two or more. I have never been in the military but having been homeless in the past, I have missed meals and know what it feels to have no hope.
Not sure what is the shelf life of an F1 grande but this dude said that the one he showed was from the 1990.
I've done a fair bit of camping in my life . . . that dugout looks pretty f*ing sharp, actually
Great video Paul. Many gems in this one.
Who’s gonna freak out at this guy about his food when he’s the only living soldier in his trench?
Would not have thought you would have picture frames in a war..
Funny he said this is my new NEW I tell u NEW automaic..
FYI, if you get surplus gear and aren't using it for anything high speed you can rite dye the gear.
1:45 I've to disagree with the wood stove part. It's not as dangerous as he makes it look. Did my conscription service in Finnish Defence Forces and never heard anyone being getting carbon dioxide/monoxide poisoning. Leaking smokestack isn't a problem as the smoke is getting sucked out by the wind. Firewood stoves are simpler and "better" for the environment we were in (big forests with temperatures as low as -33C/-27F).
19:37 Firewood on the ground next to the stove is a good way to get rid of snow/ice and will dry them too. Just have water nearby and a guard for the stove
I am like, totally impressed with your skill in adding energy gum into the video in such an appropriate moment
No US/NATO has been in a trench war situation since possibly Korea.a certain amount of humility and respect is demanded for these guys. My goodness.
Having been on forward operating bases. Looks very similar. Field hygiene is very important, as he said.
@@crissdizick9403 I mean obviously his condition is poor, and much of it is his/his squads fault for having it so cluttered, but I think Combat Veterans comment on the logistics is somewhat poor, both sides have extensive drone control over these areas and despite EW beginning to become prevalent in Russian areas, its still not everywhere, not to mention that many of these trench areas are in hard to reach places and trucks would be very vulnerable to being hit, much better to send guys out to deliver them or have men go from the trenches to the truck and receive their supplies rather than closer delivery, which risks the entire supply package being destroyed.
Pretty sure they don’t have the option to go home and live a peaceful life on a farm in Russia.
I used to dip coffee grinds and eat them after… lol.
Good show today,I think general public should see this, give us a for real what is happening
Love camping, in a small space like a tent or in war a dug out organisation is key, you know where everything is, saves time to find things.
Hygiene everything washed and put away as you leave food out .....your inviting rats to party in WW1 that had massive rats on the Trenches....if I have to explain!!!
Plus they put the stove near the door, maybe for air? But if that sets the wood on fire they trapped, mind you the smell in there with rotten food, damp clothes.....yikes and I have no military experience just years of camping....grim.
It's like an old snap shot from WW1 REALLY
Except no "King Rat"!.
The smartest nutritional way to gain some edge is to ditch sugar, coffee and any other addictions. Keep peanuts which contain 50% fat and 20% protein. They are highly energy dense easy to contain and do not leak or rotten. Depending on candy is the worst thing you can do. Ditching the addictions give yourself best chance to survive in the hardest situation. Any even small excess mental and physical energy is welcome. The ketogenic diet helps to survive because you don't get constant sugar cravings. You already run on fat. No sugar or other substance cravings is the way to preserve mental energy and preempt distractions.
huh? - lol - sugar coffee, cigarettes, and dip are all soldiers consume. You think they give a crap about being in 'ketosis'? lol
@@GeorgeLerma It was just an idea to get more chance to survive. Idea of ketosis is that you are fueled all the time. Not like one hour after candy intake.
@@KetogenicGuitars i get it. i actually agree with your point. It's just not reality in the trenches.
@@KetogenicGuitarsThis is all very true. I was actually introduced to keto by a LT. (which he had no name for and just called it his diet) in Somalia in 1993. I was surprised to see how fit he was always eating fat. Yes, all addictions will simply give you a brief physiological effect but then a powerful crash. With that being said maintaining a keto diet in warfare is tremendously difficult. You need a good 2500 calories a day in those conditions and addictions are the only comfort you may have. Many soldiers develop addictions in service. It’s been going on for centuries.
@@SeanP7195 I actually got that addiction point(about only comfort). In some context with special forces ketosis could be tested. It is absolutely demanding as the whole team must be fully behind it. If you slip you will get keto flue and it is very counter productive. Some particular individual who knows himself and the ketosis science inside out can use the benefit. That said we all have been using ketosis in mothers womb about 9 months. One thing about testing ketosis with special force team is to understand every individual is little different in that how much carbs break the ketosis and incite addiction effects.
What’s even worse how once again they have Slavs fighting each other! War needs to end now!
one of the most interesting videos on the subject.. you gave great insight on a part of war rarely shown/ thanks!
5:25 I bet Nescafé isn’t happy about being in this video…
I bet they do not care … they are realistic enough … they stopped producing in 2022 in Russia, but there is still stock … with most people it rather sticks … they use Nescafe at the frontlines … regardless that this one is not frontline close …
I bet they don't even know about that video.. and won't care as long as there's no major media outrage...
Wherever he is, he isnt starving right now. He left food on the plate.
Thanks for the video
Maybe someone already pointed it out, but the fact that the wall behind the stove has started to char is worrying. It's a deffinit fire hazard. It should be covered by sheet metal, bricks or tiles. This will also help reflect the heat into the room for more effective heating.

Combat Vet: my god, guys, this is really dangerous, look how these guys have left old food out...

The Dude is telling you that the Geranade is the recommended Egress system
Excellent video 😊!
Lol. So the Ukrainian soldiers are living in 5 star trenches?
Well done on missing the point of the video that badly.
@@phillydelphia8760You mean wombats cope ? Or your blind obedience to BS
@@Peacewar2020 no, I mean you completely missing the point of this video.
Do you have comprehension problems?
Some if not the majority live under similar conditions..
I knew this would become a commercial for Strikegum
In my army days every unit at individual vehicle basis had an unofficial 'Ritsel-kist' or 'Russle-box' where you could find all kind of non-army issued or additionally acquired stuf that made life easier/more pleasant for soldiers. Officially this was frowned upon, but it was tolerated for morale considerations. Generally the NCO mafia would overlook the use of this.
Like what?
The most I saw was snacks and I'd bring my laptop.
100mg of caffeine is nothing. Literally every day at work, I take 200mg at morning coffee break and another 200mg at lunch.
That strike gum seems like a good alternative to drinking a shitload of sugar. I avoid consuming sugar at work because it makes my blood sugar crash about 3 hours later.
Lyndon B Johnson once said, "It is better to have your enemies inside the tent pissing out then outside the tent pissing in."
But...sometimes you owe it to yourself and your allies that the enemy is no longer capable of pissing anywhere ever again.
Iron sights? Omg. Open field warfare with iron sights is insane. I'm not even a combat vet or active and I have a scope on my rifle. Sent literally to die. It's fucking sad
I used an optic once in basic training. The rest of the time was open sights. Most units, especially non combat units don't use optics.
Hey it worked in Finnland, they thought it would work here too. Alas...
The question is if other side uses optics on mass scale?
@@Ozark-nq9uu Yea but the thing is, when you look at the combat arm of a western army, like the Us for example, sure it’s reservists are lucky if they get old acogs and most rear line units have ironsights. But any frontline infantry unit is gonna have optics. You hardly see optics on Russian rifles in their front line units.
US Marines qualify at 500 yards with iron sights. Some US Marines recieved optic for the first time going into Fallujah. After the battle they were investigated for suspected executions due to the amount of single headshots taken.
What I would like to know is how far from the frontline this is taken. It looks like this setup took a while to get into this state. What would make sense to me is that either it is somewhere where the frontline does not change much, which means someone like this has some time to dig in something like this. If it is in a place where the frontline moves, it would have to be farther from the frontline. Or maybe it once was close to the frontline, but as it moved, the place stayed behind. But if that's the case, wouldn't this guy be ordered to move closer to the front line, in which case he'd be forced to abandon this little place.
Its wired, has electricity … of course not close to frontline …
No military experience but lots of outdoors, alpine, climbing etc.
My treat was chocolate biscuits in a hard box. Your treat my vary and it wasn't the biscuits but having one thing that wasn't squashed, crumbled or otherwise made as lifeless as possible. The little thing of one item not fu*ked up lol.
More organized than I would have thought.
#MONSTER drinks in Russia???? Never going to drink them again!!!
Russia sent more than 15.6 million metric tons (mt) of Russian LNG to EU ports last year, according to data analytics firm Kpler, a slight increase from 2022 and a 37.7% jump compared to 2021. (REUTERS)
C02 in Russia? never going to breath
Use common sense … of course they sell in Russia … and are doing business as usual … its energy drinks not tank parts!
Nobody can ever say any trench isn’t a mess! Trench warfare is hell!
