At the beginning of Russia's hybrid war, the situation in the Armed Forces was not very good. So in 2015, after receiving a summons to the Military Committee and three days for the meeting, Ruslan enrolled in the ranks of the "Azov" battalion.

"During those difficult times, the soldiers equipped themselves. And I also embroidered an embroidered talisman for him. While embroidering, I prayed, asking God for protection for my brother..." - recalls Lyudmila. And he adds that the brother "grew into a tall, powerful man: quick, decisive, principled, passionate, courageous." He was engaged in various sports, loved to fish, cooked deliciously. He had the call sign "Kutuzov" - that's what he was called in the yard because of the bandage he used to wear over his damaged eye as a child.
