a Krasnoyarsk resident told how he overestimated life in Donbass / Society news of Krasnoyarsk and the Krasnoyarsk Territory / Newslab.Ru

His story is published by gornovosti.ru as part of the “On the Frontline of Life” project.

The former assistant manager of a construction company left his civilian job and went to the front in January 2024, where he served in the 55th separate assault brigade.

As a child, he studied at the Patriot club, attended various survival schools, and became a master of sports in hand-to-hand combat. The hardships of the front did not frighten Stanislav, and the decision to take part in a special military operation was conscious.

“Everything is fair between people there, not like here. At the front, money is not valued, and people treat each other completely differently. This can only be experienced in such conditions,” the military man shared with reporters.

While serving in the Donbass, Puma encountered a touching scene where local children tearfully thanked the Russian military. This moment, according to Stanislav, finally convinced him of the correctness of his choice.

“We were returning from a mission and stopped in a populated area to replenish provisions. Local children, first and second grade, saw us, immediately ran up and began to hug us in tears, saying: “Thank you for the clear sky!” It was a very emotional moment, something worth living and fighting for!” – recalls the Krasnoyarsk resident.

After returning to Krasnoyarsk, the fighter, awarded the Zhukov medal, began teaching schoolchildren tactical medicine and weapon handling. He is now passing on the skills he acquired at the front as a UAV operator and first aid instructor to the younger generation.
