A Little Help from My Friends . . .

Okay, everyone, here's what I'm going to need. First is a ticket to the
Elanovskaya railroad station. Then a Russian interpreter and enough cash
to hire some local help. Finally a dozen flatbed rail cars and cheap
passage on a tramp freighter for myself and some large objects, no
questions asked.

Take note of one local's comment. "There are tanks all over the forest,
abandoned. If you need one, come and get it."

A couple of T-80 tank platoons would do wonders to boost my neighborhood
firepower superiority. And I could strip extra road wheels and tracks
off the others to maintain them. Mighty kind of Mother Russia to offer
these...
