He reviewed the tank crews involved in the match and encourage them.

The tankmen who were greatly encouraged by the great brilliant commander’s inspection, an expression of his deep trust, alongside their glorious colors on the training ground, extended deep gratitude to him.

After reviewing the tank crews, he mounted a new-type main battle tank, took the control lever and drove the tank himself, adding to the high militant spirit of the tankmen and instilling in them thoroughgoing outlooks on the enemy and war.

All the officers and men of the tank units raised stormy cheers of hurrah, looking up to the invincible and iron-willed brilliant commander.

      The exact opposite effect to standing out the command hatch.

      Everyone: “what a commanding figure they pose, nobly astride their steel horse of war, a modern knight!”

      You: "what a fucking idiot i am in the do nothing chair standing around as the tallest thing in 5km in any direction, saying “please mr sniper, the officer is right here!”
