The filters are really too strict. That's what you do with a gun after you fire it and you want to fire it again. Stupid oversensitive filters.
August 20th, 3045 Doc said hand needs amputation. Putting prosthetic on it so I can fight. Surgery planned tomorrow. Russian factory producing who knows how much HA. Sent men on raid.
@Transcontinental 1984 is a real book about an authoritarian world, so don't expect it to reveal much. I'm assuming it's been put in just to show that that's the direction Russia has gone.
August 2nd, 3045 The surgery went according to plan, and my left, robotic hand functions perfectly now. Miko hasn't come back yet. We talked to him on our HAM radio. We're running low on food. I made an announcement today that we are cutting back by a fifth on food consumption, but we will pay extra for men to go hunting and fishing. I told HQ about our predicament, but I don't have a response yet. I had a weird dream last night. I was a Russian soldier, and I was fighting some Minutes Men, and I shot one in the head. They all retreated after a while, but the man I had shot was me. I looked at my hands, and my left hand was a robotic one, just like his. I woke up covered in cold sweat. Gotta get my mind off of it. It's been bothering me all day. Better get back to work.
