I would like to but I am a little gunshy after the likes of U-571 and Pearl Harbor.

Still a tank movie is a good departure.

I also recommend for those that have not seen it, “The Beast” about a Russian tank crew in Afghanistan.

Another good Russian flick is “The Platoon”.
Not “platoon”. It’s about Russian conscripts
drafted and sent to Afghanistan.
Top notch. The DI is one tough nut, but then
you see him alone after some reunion and he’s
by himself in a field crying. He takes them
to Afghanistan/ firebase under attack etc.
Not many of them live.
