How I became an Abrams tank driver in two weeks: I had never driven in fourth gear before, and the tank had seven gears…

We were brought to Donbas last year in June, after training as a tank driver in turbo mode…

Two weeks – and fuck, you’re a ready-made tanker, a tank driver…

It’s bullshit that you don’t know how to drive…

Anyway, they drove the tanks from the trawls to the edge of the road, and nobody knows what happened next.

They had to drive the tanks somewhere, but nobody knows where, it’s a military secret.

In the background, something is shooting, machine guns are firing and exploding systematically… Holy shit, is it already a war?! 😱😱
(As it turned out, 90% of that noise was from the training ground, although distant explosions did occur in the war).

The road is full of military vehicles, sometimes even some “wedges” running around, huge German military trucks and Hummers, and meanwhile a lot of civilian vehicles – and it looks like they were released in the 90s Zhiguli, Muscovites, motorcycles with a sidecar…

The traffic was so bad… car after car, and almost complete disregard for traffic rules…

A conductor arrived and said:
– Follow me, I’ll show you the way.
Where the fuck is the way? Are you going to the war or what? 😱😱
And my kettle is the first to go… I said:
– I’m not going first, uncle.
– Why not?
– Because I can’t fucking drive! Unless it’s in a field where there’s no one else… And here there’s a shitload of cars… I’ll run over somebody else… Let me go home, uncle, I don’t want to go to war!
– What are you pissing about? Come on, let’s go!

We left… fuck… hands shaking, knees trembling… tanks roaring across the Donbas region…

He gave himself some gas in his jeep and drove off, and there were a lot of cars: some uncle cut me off with his first Zhiguli and pushed forward, followed by a motorcycle with a gurney and a hummer with good bearded thugs in full ammunition

Holy shit 😱 where did I get to…

Everything is beeping, roaring with engines, swearing and waving their hands, like:
– Come on, come on! Tanks are strong!
What the fuck is strong, I’ve never driven in fourth gear before, and the tank has seven of them…

And the commander is shouting into the helmet:
– Drive, damn it! Fuck that Zhiguli! Why are you driving like an ox?

Total sur…
