Derek sure looks spiffy in his new outfit that almost covers some of his vital areas. Maybe he'll be buried in it, to bask in everlasting glory that what's left of him will not be surrounded by all those heathens in the west.

The deployment also created financial strain for the family. Derek and his unit members were reportedly required to “donate” 10,000 rubles for their own supplies, consuming a substantial portion of his paycheck. DeAnna reported receiving no pay or bonus after one month of Derek’s service.
