in case...
When the base
was finally attacked,
at first it wasn't frightening.
Eagle 13 calling.
Eagle 13 calling.
Hearing you.
Yes, I can see it too, that spot.
It's done.
We've already covered it
with our ordnance.
- Llberty calllng.
- Liberty, revoke last order.
Volga 10,
this is Kulyab 65.
K 9, Eagle 13 calling,
hold on.
Maybe it's coming from there.
That's the square Liberty mentioned.
Falcon 29 at post 46.
Move forward In slngle file
and be very careful,
Includlng on the way back. Repeat.
Did he say where
the firing was coming from?
From the direction of the base,
you can take...
about a kilometre, see?
They are positioned like that.
It might be coming from thereabouts.
Or from over there.
Hard to say.
Follow the rlverl
OK, I'll get to work, then.
What kind of injuries?
Minor or serious?
Fatal.
Switch channels
and explain what's happening.
Straight at you
or in another direction?
At which block, 1 or 2?
Report, 1st!
Get Vikin out of there immediately
and try and see
where the sniper is shooting from.
Rakhimov, all you lot
in the trenches lie down,
and put your helmets on,
there are snipers out there!
Got it. Go on.
You there!
Yura,
why have we lost contact?
What's up?
Liberty,
keep a sharp eye on the Curtain.
They're still firing samovars.
We're OK for the moment.
We're firing back.
We're firing back at them
with our own samovars.
Come here!
Keep the dog out of here.
They must retreat.
Flre closer to us,
they're already on the slope.
Target the road.
OK. The road, lads, the roadl
Salyut!
Salyut 1!
Nasyrov has made bread dough.
He'd better bake it, then.
Salyut 1,
Eagle 13 calling.
Fire at the road again,
keep it coming, more thickly.
At the road, the roadl
Mortarl
Their commander
reported activity in that sector.
We must make a decision
and carry out a manoeuvre.
Let's transfer the men
from there
and concentrate them here.
The enemy's altered
his line of fire.
He's shifting it towards us.
Just leave the service guns.
No, not from the Curtain,
from those positions.
- Transfer them where?
- Let's think.
At the end here, in Position 1?
- Or closer to the mortars?
- Closer to the mortars.
At the Maples.
- There aren't enough of us.
- The Maples are in the open.
But there are places to shelter in.
They'll be out in the open
when they move.
There's no-one left here
to man the ordnance.
All right with you if I go out
and take a look around?
If you like.
They are all on the hills.
- Valera!
- Yes!
Look, there must be a lookout
on the hill.
War is hideous,
from the very first shot to the last.
There is nothing but dust,
the smell of burning,
stones, hot shrapnel, blood,
a hint of fear.
No room for aesthetics.
Let's get into position.
On foot, that way.
The vehicles advance in line.
Call me when you arrive.
Have you got a magazine?
Is it enough?
It's us he's aiming at.
Where's it coming from?
Watch out for shells!
Mind your belt.
Shit.
Go on.
You'll have to clean it.
It's stuck!
They're waving a white flag.
- We weren't shooting at them.
- Got it.
Have you been in the truck long?
Everything finished
as suddenly as it began.
The enemy retreated
to the mountains
to muster reinforcements.
We received 26 missiles.
Exactly 26.
They have nothing better
to do than count in the hills.
- Oh yeah?
- Yeah. They count the explosions?
You're wrong,
they get data from the other side.
We prevented them from counting.
No, they work directly
with Afghanistan.
So?
As soon as it's repaired,
we'll know if the planes
are going to strike again or not.
He was going to call.
Just going through the motions.
It was just a show
to frighten them.
It's over, it's over.
You can put that down,
if you like.
Not too many
four-letter words?
It's life.
You should warn us.
It's realistic.
It's realistic, but...
Here they come, at full speed.
He dropped the first one
before he got here
and he'd
