RIP
The governments of America and Russia may be at odds with each other, but I know us low ranking military service members would be friends if we worked together.
Yeah I rather have Russians work with me in the office than against me anywhere.. especially not on the battle field. .RIP!
Hope our countries help the Russians recover their lost boat and people..
