In “MIG Pilot” the author trashes the USSR and it’s military. Do you think all of it was true? Like the part where the ground crew got drunk on the alchohol based hydraulic fluid?

Well, either he was telling the truth, or he was lying. Since I was US Air Force, and not the Soviet Air Force, I don’t know how the hydraulic system of the MiG 25 works.
