Viktor didn’t have time to mourn. In Mius-Front , the battle is a single, continuous calculation. If he stayed in the T-34, the next mortar round would kill them all. If he bailed, the German MG42s waiting in the treeline would chew them to pieces. He checked his watch
He made the wrong choice. He always knew he would.
