Heroes never die! - Vitoniz

[Lanakov]

I know it's been a year but I've only just found out and it's a bit of a gut punch. Indulge me, I should like to say a few parting words of my own.

We exchanged a lot in 2019 and 2020, I remember most his constant enthusiasm and characteristically borked english. Here's a good example :


His last message to me, left without a reply since I was away on assignment at that point was : "sorry, but can you give a peasant role in MNG chat?".
I know he died for a valiant cause, but I'll miss him. Truly a strange world when Disco friends leave for war and don't come back.
We have a customary saying in the French military in such instances, and I think it fits Vito quite well.
His devotion honours us, his sacrifice compels us. Son engagement nous honore, son sacrifice nous oblige.

If everyone was a bit more like Lanakov, the entire world would be more positive. Including pregnancy tests.
