7th and highest ranking Soviet general killed-in-action

at least this one wasn't run over by one of his mutinous soldiers


A lieutenant general in Russia’s military was killed in a strike near the city of Kherson on Friday, the highest-ranked officer to be killed in the war so far.

Lt. Gen. Yakov Rezantsev is reportedly the seventh Russian general to die amid the country's invasion of Ukraine and the second of his rank to be killed. Morale is believed to be low among Russian soldiers, with some troops fatally turning on their own commanders in recent days.

“Yakov Rezantsev is the second Russian lieutenant general to die in the war against Ukraine,” Ukraine’s defense ministry said Friday. “Torn apart Georgian Abkhazia, bombed-out Syria and finally inglorious elimination in Ukraine. This is becoming a typical track-record of Russian generals.”

Awesome.

"How did the General die?"

"Ukrainian bombing raid, sir."

"How come he has a bullet hole in the back of his head?"

"Unfortunate shrapnel wound, sir."

"Exactly 9mm in diameter?"

"Bad luck, sir. Fucking Ukrainians, eh?"
