Seriously what's good in giving kids AK-47 (or whatever that assault rifle is) and putting them in a tank. At least half of them had helmets.No such thing as a good tax - Churchill

Great, she can dance with swords, but I know a couple dozen girls that can do the same thing, whether it be with swords, firesticks or just plain juggling. Question is, does she know what to do with those swords aside from dance with them?Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
Abusing Yellow is meant to be a labor of love, not something you sell to the highest bidder.

First groom, Pyotr, 23 years old, served in the Air Force, as a mechanic
They kind of looked at him: "Eh... Maybe."
Next candidate, Igor
Can't remember his age. Served with a Border Troops Coast Guard unit. Helped take down a gang of poachers in the Black Sea. Him, they looked at with a bit more respect.
And then, Terek Cossack Pavel Shulsky enters the stage
and they read out his dossier, like they always do for all the candidates, all the information, biography, with pictures. 20 years old. At 16, became Master of Sport in kickboxing, won his krai (province) youth championship. Served 2 years: specnaz, Chechnya
wounded twice, helped kill a noted rebel leader (they did not say which), received title Hero of Russia fighting his way through enemy fire to rescue a wounded and surrounded comrade. Etc. The girl's father stood, shook his hand, and said "Son, I want you in my family." The girl looked like she was in love. In the end the choice was obvious
See, that is the way over there. In other places, a girl waits for a Prince Charming ona white horse. Cossack girls wait for a war hero with battle scars and a chest full of medals :)
So for boys in that society, military service is the most important part of life.

Call it cultural differences, but I still have issues with kids playing with assault rifles and live ammo.
Those same kids have to wait to turn 18 to get a driving license, right?No such thing as a good tax - Churchill
