Question: Does anyone know how Russia sets up their military and whether it would be likely that 350 men from one village, who all happen to be in the army and are all deployed to the same region at the same time?

I would suggest checking with the mothers groups in Russia who have sons in the military. The ones who have lost sons and were secretly buried aren't happy and are making noise in Russia about it.
You can find those specific mothers groups because Russia has now forced them toe register as "foreign agents".

USA's political class has many people who are adherents of devil worship.
Russia's position is justified.

Russia lives in a unique situation and has thus adopted certain political structure that may not look "democratic" in the eyes of liberal West.
Moscow (AFP) - When Russian paratrooper Nikolai Kozlov was deployed to Crimea to help Moscow take over the peninsula from Ukraine, his parents were proud of him.
Six months later Kozlov is disabled for life, an amputee now recovering in hospital from wounds incurred on a Kremlin-orchestrated covert mission to Ukraine to prop up separatists fighting against Kiev.
The paratrooper's uncle, Sergei Kozlov, said his brother asked him to help take care of the young man in the hospital.
"Seva called yesterday and said that Kolka had been wounded in Ukraine, and had lost a leg, or both legs -- I didn't ask," Kozlov said, referring to his brother and nephew by their nicknames.
Kozlov's written comments to AFP are part of an emerging trickle of first-hand accounts which -- along with secret burials -- are providing grim evidence of Russia's intervention in Ukraine amid a virtual blackout imposed by state television.
The Committee of Soldiers' Mothers, the main rights group representing the military, has said up to 15,000 soldiers could have been sent into Ukraine over the past two months.
Famous Russian writer Grigori Chkhartishvili, better known under his pseudonym Boris Akunin, stated that everything in Russia now feels foreign to him in his Echo Moskvi blog post.
“I have no common points with Putin’s Russia, everything here is foreign to me. It became difficult for me to be here in the period of overall madness. Therefore, even though I do not intend to emigrate, naturally, I will probably start spending most of my time outside. A sober man feels uncomfortable under the same roof as drunks. I will visit periodically to see whether the binge is over. I will remain ‘part of what they call Russia,’ in this sense expatriation is definitely impossible. And Russia, which is also part of me, will not go anywhere,” notes the writer.

During WW2 Russia lost 20 Million people to war, starvation and disease. Vladimir Putin gave a speech a few years ago where he declared the "Greatest tragedy of the 20th century being the collapse of the Soviet Empire"...not losing 20 Million people, but the fall of the Soviet Union. Get it?....
In a dream, Vladimir Putin sees the ghost of Joseph Stalin and asks for his advice on running the country.
“Round up and shoot the opposition, and then repaint the Kremlin walls blue,” Stalin says.
“Why blue?” Putin asks.
“Very good,” Stalin replies, “I knew you wouldn’t ask about the first part.

The loss of men in war happens. It has happened repeatedly in history and will happen again.
That figure was courtesy not of the west or bankers, but Stalin and his paranoid Russian supremacy over all others. Whats sad is Nazi Germany could have learned how to kill better by following Stalin.

The loss of 20 million is a big statistic but such figures hardly moves the globalist who want even bigger figures.

The breakup of USSR caused political power of USSR to be fragmented and frittered away, which has resulted in a number of fratricidal wars.

The democracy is meaningful only when people are taught human values. These human values are not visible in bombing by planes, rocket launchers and tanks on civilian population in East Ukraine.

We support human values, not a shell of democracy. The West preaches a shell of democracy while practicing blind greed and hatred inside.
He said that the department received on September 2 an inquiry from the Union’s secretary Valentina Melnikova who requested to specify the whereabouts of nine servicemen whose relatives had no information about them for a long time. “Heeding her request, we have found this out and replied within a day,” the army spokesman said.
According to him, all the soldiers, specified in the request, are engaged at planned manoeuvres and field exercises with their units: “Eight guys have already called their relatives and friends, as we demanded that the commanders control this. We have not found the whereabouts of only one serviceman so far,” the defense official said.
Commanders from the base have told her several have returned dead, she said, and around 15 wounded soldiers were also flown back this week.
