A Tale of a Cossacks in Spice Island



21st October 1965, Orenburg

Outrageous to say that I have to join the Red Army, my ancestor from the beginning of modern Russia had always served in the army but that army is a different one from this group of thugs. I admit personally that they were able to defeat Germany and make Russia great nation once more. But that was not enough to convince me to join the army, until today..when I saw that very announcement. It was stated there that the Red Army are recruiting men to be sent into south eastern nation named Indonesia. I don't know the details yet but hey..the pays is good and I am able to see some sight seeing there. The recruiting sergeant said to me that the works is not too hard other than to assist Indonesian military against some unknown coup. The only bad thing is that I cannot bring my horse and the sergeant also said that there will be no cavalry units....

1st November 1965, Vladivostok

Time goes so fast...I'm now in Vladivostok waiting for the turn to board the transport ship. I had just completed my basic training recently in Volgograd after enlisting to join the special operation, there I met with some new friends and established myself as a sergeant. The high command had decided to raise three infantry division and put them under the name of South Asian Expeditionary Corps. I was assigned to 120th Motorized Division(Volunteer), the last division to be raised. The army had also decided to sent another five existing Soviet division to support the operation. Whilst travelling inside Trans-Siberian train to Vladivostok, I noticed some different atmosphere. Everything seems to be so secret that I can't write a letter to my fellow cossacks in Orenburg... I am gratefull though that I still can write my diary. Ah..now it's time for me to board the ship...The ship which is going to travel to land I never heard before....
