Title: The war scenes are an accurate portrayal.
Review: In the Afgan war the USSR faced it's Vietnam. It was a war of attrition that we were winning until the stinger missiles shifted the advantage to the rebels. The unflawed western characters and the coincidences of relationship between advisaries is unrealistic, but the story of the conflict and the characters who participated in the actual life and death struggles was very well done. Maybe this is so because the author was in charge of the Afgan rebel force.
