It is amazing how the Russian soldiers look like American soldiers of the Vietnam period. Both groups were in unpopular wars, abandoned by the politicians, misunderstood by the people back home and lost in a land they knew nothing about. Discipline breaks down and they become lost.

@@saml3301 The soviets thought they were helping prop up a friendly communist government while helping themselves by having neighbors who were on their side. Then it sorta turned into the at-the-time Afghan government asking the Soviets for men and weapons to keep hold of power while the people were generally pissed off because their government was basically repressing the shit out of them. Then the war escalated until the Soviets withdrew and the insurgency overwhelmed the government forces and claimed power. Very, very similar to the Vietnam war but from a communist prospective pretty much. *EDIT* I meant to clarify, the Soviets thought they were helping and that they were a needed presence to the stability and peace of Afghanistan but when they got there, they found out the normal people generally hated their guts because they were being ignored by the government and the Soviets wanted a communist government, so they were actively aiding them stay in power. Similar to how the GIs arrived in Vietnam thinking they were a bastion of freedom until people started shooting at them, then realizing they weren't needed and wanting to go home but not being allowed to. The Soviets generally thought they were helping communism flourish in willing countries through mostly peaceful means until the Afghan veterans started coming back with horror stories and talking about how they were pretty much hated by the local Afghanistanis and how they shouldn't be fighting in Afghanistan.
The soviet soldiers were nothing like the american counterparts in no way. They had different backgrounds, different states of mind and different perception of the wars. And also they imposed different influence on the local environment-the soviets built schools and factories which the local people in very palpable way benefited from.
@@MECHANISMUS That still sounds very similar to the people in Vietnam, they fortified villages distributed propaganda/food and attempted very halfassedly to win the minds of the people (although if I remember correctly they were generally popular in big cities, but absolutely hated by the country side). I would say they imposed very similar influence, considering the Soviet tactic of burning down/bombing villages near ambush sites and the reports of MiG Hind assault squads touching down in villages to kidnap and rape women. It sounds very similar to the American tactic of napalming villages suspected of helping the Viet Cong and the many war crimes that were committed. Even the goal of invading Afghanistan was the was the same as the goal of invading Vietnam. They entered to maintain a government that was generally oppressive to the people in the hope that they would remain friendly to the "helping" superpower, with the other superpower covertly providing weapons and tactics to the opposition's side of the war. The was has even been referred to as "The Soviet Union's Vietnam", although I think that is oversimplifying a little bit. I do agree the soldiers themselves were very very different culturally from the Americans though. I just think the Soviets as a whole ended up following a very similar route, with the bombings of innocent civilians causing those same civilians to join the Mujahideen/Viet Cong being a noteable point, in addition to the soldiers and invading government thinking they were helping. The disillusionment experienced by the Afghanistan war vets after their service seems to be very similar to their American counterparts as well.
As an American, I have nothing but respect and admiration for Russian veterans. They've gone through some serious shit and don't get the recognition for it like our vets do over here. We're all human beings and honestly, neither side wants to be fighting in some shitty war. God bless em'.
I would disagree. Kind of makes being in the military look like a waste of time and potential. Reminds me of the sadness of the German grunts at the end of WW1 in All Quiet on the Western Front and the Vietnam War. Its just sad.

The parts where it is just showing the APC crew speaks volumes about how they felt. They look so lost, confused, and sad. I couldn't blame them though, they're witnessing the collapse of their country as they knew it, and all the while they're sent out to fight in a war that they don't believe in. They're just a ragtag group of grunts in an APC, trying to get by. In America, we're generally only taught the bad parts of the Soviet Union, so when you see these men showing real emotion, its so eye opening. They're just grunts like our soldiers were in Vietnam, doing as they're told, trying to find their way. For this, I respect the hell out of Russian veterans. They were just like any soldier: They didn't want to be out fighting, and would much rather be at home with their family. God bless them.
It's really weird to think of the Soviet Union. It existed, it was a force upon the geopolitical and social landscape of the world for decades, and then, one night in December of 1991 when I was just over 1 year old... it VANISHED, for good or ill it's still tough to say. Regardless, it's kind of hard to wrap my head around. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Tiger tanks bogged down in the mud near Prokhorovka. I watched the red banner flutter in the sunlight above the Brandenburg Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
@@ГлебСердюков-г4ц That's true, but from an outsider's prospective it was pretty abrupt. The Soviets weren't exactly willing to show their socioeconomic weaknesses to the outside world; the first most people in the West knew of the problems inside the Soviet bloc was the fall of the Berlin wall. And just 2 years later, of course, everything came crashing down.
exactly, it was a bloody (very bloody) miracle that it even survived past the 1930-s. Killing off the most talented and rewarding moronic obedience is usually not a good long term plan for an empire. And the the predecessing russian empire was actually more dominant in its haydays relative to global powers of their time than soviet union. The stupid thing is that anything can be romanticised, the current young generation thinks the kommunism was great, maybe only having minor flaws.
@@varikasut Stalin was a paranoid sociopath, and the people who came after him all came out of his cult of personality, one way or the other. Whether communism could have ultimately succeeded as an ideology without his corrupting influence we will never know, but it's interesting to ponder. Also, if WWII hadn't happened, galvanizing the Stalin regime in the process, it's very possible that the USSR may have come apart at the seams in the 1940s and '50s. That too is an interesting thing to ponder.
@@autofox1744 it's impossible for communism to succeed since it creates many opportunities for dictatorship and corruption after realizing only this fact people should have abandon the idea of building socialistic society.

that's exactly how the soldiers usa are behaving there now.
Brilliant and mesmerizing.
This video was better than I thought it was
seeing giorgio moroder on a russian apc while kavinsky nightcall is played. it's epic
Damn, the editing on this is phenomenal.
My father was in Afghanistan in 1979, when war was not declared.

I am from Russia
I am for peace in over the world, in Ukraine, in Syria, in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Kosovo, in USA, in Europe, in South/North Korea, in China, in Vietnam, in Countries of Africa, in over the world. Hate war, hate barbarism.
Not to rain on the parade but what ive learned is that in times of peace, there is economic war, which creates the conditions for the next overt war...nobody ever knows how to get along and treat each other like human beings. People want too much.
Buddy Palson Yes and countries that usually hate each other will start more proxy and economic wars thus reducing the chance of world peace.
Kosovo isn't a country
@Reneo Hock
Barbarism will always require war.
Antonished, I love you brother
VISITING after US mishap... How much this song is true... proves...

Beautiful camerawork and editing
Still watching in 2019

Why the song goes so good with the video? 🤔
because this is 80's and those guys got something inside them that hard to explain. And media talks different shit about them, but they still the same. Except not all of them could made their night call after all.
These are the men I killed in Metal Gear Solid 5 :(
You're gonna extract him?
It this the truly trailer for MGS V
You never killed men. And stop call bunch of useless pixels as a men.
Oof
J Strix do you call movie/book characters fictitious men? Man you sound fun in parties.
