(R): In general, we were lucky, dad, we could have been hit, too.
(F): But you didn’t get hit… did you at least give it back to them?
(R): Well… we were shot at, out of everything they’ve had.
(F): You were shot at?
(R): Yes, out of everything. Everyone was shelling us.
(F): Right… they were firing at you?
(R): Yes. It was a slaughter. Scary.
(F): Right… Were there a lot of them?
(R): A lot, really a lot…
(F): Must have been mercenaries, right, son?
(R): I don’t know, dad, we had no time…
(F): Right… so next time, the others will go?
(R): I don’t know, dad. Next time, it will be horror.
(F): Wasn’t artillery helping you?!
(R): Our artillery is terrible. It’s a disgrace for Russia.
(F): How come?!
(R): It’s shelling us more *than them*.
(F): Right, your own artillery?
(R): Yes, both ours, and theirs…
(F): They must have been given wrong coordinates.
(R): They are not reaching them. Always landing next to us…
(F): Well, someone will get their a*ses kicked, whoever did it. Nikita, you see, they had wrong coordinates.
