If I Was A Young Russian Male I Would

deliberately break a leg in order to avoid being cannon fodder.

Riiiiight. Puzzled face emoji.

Malingering wouldn't be looked on with favour by the authorities.
Probably better to try and get to the west and seek asylum.

[Stargazer]

I think if one broke a leg it would have to be put in plaster. They would not be able to prove it was a deliberate ploy to avoid fighting the Ukrainians.

[royfromaus]

Aye, Sandy, if your country is facing war...flee to the west.
If your country is waging war...flee to the west.

[Maydup]

You'd still be expected to fight Stargazer, it would just make it all the more painful.

[Spicerack]

Have you put much thought into this broken leg of yours.
It might easily break by accident.
I suspect breaking it deliberately is a pretty difficult thing to do, sting a bit, too.

Start on a finger and work your way up. (or down in this case)
