Tank battalion commander Alexander Troshin, to whom President Vladimir Putin promised the rank of major instead of senior lieutenant, spoke regarding his conversation with the head of state. According to him, a conversation with the Supreme Commander-in-Chief is “worth a lot” reports TASS.
“This is an indescribable feeling,” said Troshin. “I can’t explain, I’m stupefied, I don’t fully understand yet.”
As Troshin noted, on December 25 he left the front line, from Marinka, and immediately went to contact Vladimir Putin. First, the Chief of the General Staff spoke with Troshin, and then the President of Russia. The military man admitted that for him just talking to Putin “is already worth a lot.”
Earlier, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported to Vladimir Putin regarding taking control of Marinka, a small city to the west of Donetsk. Then we started talking regarding state awards for those who took part in hostilities in this locality. Then Shoigu noted Troshin, who now has the rank of senior lieutenant.
“Senior lieutenant in a lieutenant colonel position,” Shoigu noted. As a result, Vladimir Putin decided to nominate Troshin to the rank of major, bypassing captain.
