Amen, brother. As someone who belonged, when you put on the chest your AKM, take that red folder and say "Торжественно клянусь" - you swear to protect those people no matter what. And when you turn you weapon on them ... I don't expect russian military men to read HN and understand English :-), but anyway - once you turn your weapon on civilians, you may take those epaulets, stick them up your ass and hope nobody can find you. But they will.
