This is a bit different than the recruitment videos you’re used to seeing!

Via The Blaze:
A Russian military recruitment video has surfaced, and it’s unsurprisingly dark and ominous.
Did you expect a cheery and patriotic pitch to service from the former Soviet state?
The video opens with young man staring intently at the audience with a I’m-not-here-to-joke-around look on his face.
According to a translation, the video shares the new slogan the Russian military is using to attract fresh recruits.
“This is … the first day of your new life.”
The video, which first appeared online in early May, shows a young recruit thinking back to his time kicking a soccer ball around his neighborhood, hanging out with friends and lying in a wheat field with his lady, noted U.S. News & World Report.
But then the video abruptly shifts back to the dark, cold world of the military newbie, where the young man is told to “find his enemy.”
