I'm sure you have known a few people who claimed to be KGB agents.
You know, I occasionally read a news article about a Russian man here in the United states getting his ass kicked because he ran his mouth off to somebody. The Russian men here are basically Trump supporters, they are cowards who like to run off their mouth to others. As I recall, the last article I read was about a group of Russians that starting some shit with a group of Americans, the outcome was not good for the Russians. As I recall, the beat down was so bad they spent several weeks recuperating before heading back to mother Russia.

I love the Russian people, I don't like the Russian government, but I understand it.

Sounds like they didn't bother much with surface ships, then, which is pretty smart.
