Michael Gloss, 21, was the son of CIA Deputy Director for Digital Innovation Julianne Gallina Gloss, and Iraq war veteran Larry Gloss.
Before arriving in Russia on August 13, 2023, Gloss was travelling around Europe. On his Vkontakte page bio, he wrote: “I ran away from home (and) traveled the world. I hate fascism.”
On April 4, 2024, he was killed, likely during a Russian offensive near Bakhmut, however, his burial in the U.S. did not take place until December 2024, Important Stories reports.

His obit linked from that article got pulled, but @betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world posted some screenshots in the other thread
good
The irony is that even though he was a tankie he did not get to ride in a cool tank ☹️
Good riddance and a minuscule loss. The NATO supplied tungsten is working. Did the CIA know where this dumbfuck ended up?
And nothing of value was lost
Bet it was just a rebellious phase because his mom works for the CIA. Mission accomplished comrade you stuck it to the man.
Womp womp
He died doing what he loved, being a fucking idiot.
This.
Okay, I know some kids want to be the exact opposite from their parents, but I think he took it a little bit too far…
Chud
Rest in piss
Ran away from home as an adult, lolz
I can relate. sometimes shit gets toxic late in life.
“I hate fascism” and then fighting for Russia however… damn bro.
So nothing important was lost. 🌻🌻
Would you mind explaining why you added the sunflower emoji? I googled it and it’s their national flower, but what’s the purpose of putting it in comments?
I may be wrong about the intention, but early in the invasion an older Ukrainian lady approached some Russian soldiers, harrangued them about being where they weren’t wanted and gave them some sunflower seeds to put in their pockets so their bodies would fertilise the soil after they die.
Good.
one less tankie in the world. All the others need to follow his example right the fuck now
