User blog comment:Alexguy96/Doesn't Dima Mayakovsky die when trying to stop the bomb in Paris?/@comment-31.53.27.164-20120302191615

It goes a little like this;

At the end of the campaign, Dima is writing a book about the global war of 2014, hence the pen in his hand. He had been exposed to radiation, and has become poisoned by it (you can see the skin in his forehead peeling off in places) after the nuke went off in Paris. At the end, when the screen goes dark for the final time, you hear Dima cocking his pistol, maybe to commit suicide. But you never hear the shot, you cant be too certain.
