As soon as the explosions started, Roman dropped his violin and went for his gun. As soon as he grasped it, he got behind cover and aimed his gun at the approaching Axis forces. He saw Seargeant Nebakov get into cover next to him, "Fire at will Comrades!" Nebakov shouted, "Don't let the swine through the perimeter, FOR THE MOTHERLAND! URA!" The responding shout of "URA" was heard by all, and was shouted by all those paying attention. Roman aimed down the sights of his gun and squeezed the trigger in short controlled bursts.
