    DeAnna Huffman said her husband felt he was being “thrown to the wolves” given that he had only received a limited amount of training, and that it was in Russian.

      I almost want him to survive the ordeal, only to find out that, no matter what he does he never gets accepted as a true Russian. That’s the plight of immigrants and I really hope he will feel that.
