Guy probably had a fight with wife when drunk. Her point was that he always spends money on alcohol and is an alcoholic ass. They probably live on poverty line or below, as many <1mil city folk do. He thought “fuck it! Gonna get some dough, get away from wife for a while and come home a hero”. He signed up while drunk. Died on the frontlines.
There are documented cases when wives were agitating husbands to go to war with secret intention that they die there. Widows would receive reimbursement and remarry to someone else hopefully better.
This is not even the worst case. Worst ones imo are when inmates signing up and successfully coming back home with their crimes written off. These cases never end good.
Signed up because they had some fight with a girl? At least they didn’t lose any mental capacity in Russia by losing these guys.
I am going to speculate here.

Sounds like you are not familiar with russian ladies. You don’t need that smoke.
I believe its: Got into a fight with a girl > This made him depressed > This made him drink > Signed up because drunk and wanting to escape his life
Well. Life was escaped from
Life escaped from him
I think it’s probably more of Got drunk > Got into a fight because drunk > Got even drunker > Signed up because even drunker.
