To bad he didn't have Sandy overhead and popped some smoke instead.
Reminds me of that old poster "Last Great Act of Defiance" with the mouse flippin off the raptor. Hehehe. d;^)
I honor him as a warrior fighting for his country.

When fighting savages like the jihadists, the Japanese, the Eaffan SS,the Vietcong you save the last bullet for yourself. It’s the only way.
When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
And go to your Gawd like a soldier.
Apparently Ivan is still producing warriors.

What was he going to do, surrender to these animals??
Ain’t jelly, it’s jammed.
And your going to have a hard time hitting anything if that’s on auto.
I’m wondering where the first hand account of his last minutes came from. From the jihadis that killed him? Was his radio mike open during the whole time this event transpired?
The article is a bit off the mark.
Maj. Roman Filipov was shot down while attacking a refugee column outside Ma’asaran, a village around four kilometers south of Sarqib.
The Russians have been doing this all along, thinking that they have a lesser chance of being shot down.
What Filipov didn’t know was that two days earlier, 9K38 Igla-3/SA-183 SAMs were captured from the Kurds by Turkish backed forces in Efrin. That’s what shot him down.
The Russians know that because they attack civilians, they will likely be tortured and killed if captured.
Filipov, though happened to land in an area controlled by Jaysh An Nasr and would have been repatriated to Turkey.
As civilians and militia approached him, he shot two of them and then killed himself.

A real warrior. He knew what awaited him were he to be taken alive. Even if he were to be held for ransom, he would still be subjected to unimaginable torture.
Roman Filipov
Only a fool is taken alive by jihadis.
That would be a fate worse than death is 100% of cases.
for later
