Quick question for anyone who knows: In the RAF, does the term "Guards" still designate an elite or otherwise elevated-status formation as was the case in the SU? Thanks.

Hereditary, they started life as 4th Tank army, then guards then to 20th

Don't worry, the night shift will here. Still no real time commo with Gorlovka. As an added plus it's been noisy all day in this AO, just now quieting down a tad.

Belay that last, two of 'em just flew over the digs at Warp 9.

Edit. I understand what the orcs are doing now.

"It is alarming that some Western journalists, scholars, and policy-makers are embracing a nationalist version of Ukrainian history that resonates only with part of Ukrainian society and not at all with serious academic discourse in Europe and North America."

It was no surprise when in late 2014 President Poroshenko chose him as head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory, a government body originally created by then President Yushchenko to support research and forge a national memory policy. wrote:

Basurin says will not break Minsk at any cost. It seems to me there will be no NAF offensive due to Zackarchenko's injury which appears to be of the permanent kind.

So is the Minsk agreement the new Holy Bible?

Will strictly adhere to Minsk. Reject all provocations.

Sorry, my lady, I should have been more clear. We both monitor the situations all day and evening. I'm good to around 02, she normally sleeps for a couple hours and takes over at 02. We both get up at dawn and discuss what happened and what we expect.

Belbek Aerodrome is but a few kilometers north of us. We can hear everything going on up. There has been a constant aircap for the last 48 hours and lots of other odds and ends taking off and landing. Things got quiet for a short time, then two Dry (Sukhoi) roared right over our house low enough to muss my little remaining hair and send a 30 kilo alpha male collie back to puppy time and quite desirous of climbing in to Daddy's shirt pocket.

The orcs are going to bombard and make feints to keep NAF on guard 24/7 in an effort to wear them down. Eventually the orcs will attack, assuming that NAF will be so used to the bombardments and feints they will let their guard down. It is a fool's errand, our boys will not fall for that ancient trick.

West is already providing air support for Syrian rebels. Maybe Russia should provide air support for Ukrainian rebels too?

Russia good guy. Will not interfere in the internal matters of any country. Russia Ukraine brother nations.

Too obvious. It is better to provide the rebels with state-of-art heavy artillery and more UAVs.

Thank you, Sir.

Time to supply NAF with some long range counter battery radars

Well you are the one that posted this information...

Where is the video anyway?

Followed the link in the KievPost story, had no video embedded in RFE/RFL.

You do know that those are literally shill organizations?

If the Kiev regime claims of regular Russian army units engaged in combat in the Donbas were true they would
have more than a handful of Russian POWs to parade around.

I am quite sure they could pay or blackmail Russian's to say they were from the Russian Army easy enough, they haven't even got that right, probably can't afford it.

Here is a video of him:

http://lugansk-news.com/captured-russian-officer-starkov-explained-how-and-how-many-russian-soldiers-get-recruited-to-fight-in-ukraine-full-transcript-of-the-video/

I guess it is quite easy to check up the details he is giving:

- Passport series 2203 and number 080912, issued on December 9 2002, by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Bor city in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast.
- For 12 years I have been serving in Taiga where there were only 4 houses, a school and a kindergarten…
- You get official position in 12th Command in Novocherkassk city (military unit created in 2014 as part of Southern Military District the Commander of 12th Command is Col. Bakhtiyar Nabiyev since July 25, 2014, see http://mil.ru).
