I highly doubt the crew of the Ivanovets were ardent fans of Putin. Yet, as soldiers do, they died while serving their country.
I was willing to do the same when I was young. Yet, now that I'm older, I think perhaps us Oldsters should take our Youngster's place. We've lived our lives, and our families are established. We will perish regardless, why not do so for a cause?
