Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone knew if Pavel was actually a soldier/operator in Spetsnaz or any other Russian military unit himself at any point before becoming a physical trainer or if he was a civilian hired by the military as a PT (if the Russian military even do that - I think the Brits do it on occasion but still have an entire regiment composed of physical trainers)? I've looked for sources that may answer my question but haven't found anything other than a reference he makes in ETK about 'my unit' - though technically this may still just mean a unit he was attached to as a PT.
Simple curiosity, and not looking to take anything away from him at all. 'Nuff said.
Thanks in advance,
Harry
