Somebody’s interpretation of the movie is your argument?

Look at your post, you think the author of the article never even watched Red Dawn, you seem really off.

...Red Dawn” told the story of the Soviet Union invading America...
Somebody obviously never watched the movie.

The invasion force in CO was both Soviets and Cubans.
There were Russians/Soviets stationed in town. It was Russians driving the tank that came up to the store shortly after the invasion.

The commander at the end was Cuban. The second in command was the Soviet/Russian. They both lamented about their experiences in previous conflicts they were involved in.

I have probably seen the original movie at least half a dozen times. The cast was similar to the group of young actors in the movie The Outsiders. It was one of Tom Cruise’s first movies. Before he was a big star. Powers Booth was a well known actor. As was Patrick Swazey. Charlie Sheen was relatively unknown.
