#MGM #RedDawn
So many movies that came out in 1984.
Red Dawn, Karate Kid, Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Missing in Action, St Elmos Fire, The Terminator, The Exterminator, Footloose, Beat Street, Breakin, Oh God part 3, Rhinestone, Mortuary, Friday the 13th part 4, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Indiana Jones and the temple of doom, Ninja 3:The Domination, The Evil that men do, Starman, Iceman, Dreamscape, All of Me, and The Pope of Greenwich Village. I still probably left out quite a few. Definately a Crazy volume of noteworthy flix from 1984.
1984 seemed to be a year of great now cult classic movies! Wot a year! Wish i cud "somehow" to bck knowing wot I know now....u know wot I mean?!! Hindsight 😐
do not forget the all time classic,,,,Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein...oh yeah baby....
You forgot the greatest movie to ever come out in '84 and that is C.H.U.D..
I was born in 1984. And I'm still finding awesome movies that are from 1984. What an awesome year
American cinema peaked in that year.
Pretty sure me and my friends shouted “WOLVERINES” every time we reached the top of the playground set. Great movie.
For a big part of my life, I thought they were in Michigan because of that. Which makes no sense w. the landscape.

I adored " Wolverines " long before Logan. 🤣
WOLVERIIIIIINES!!! 💥💥💥💥💥
I will never forget a TV Guide review of that Movie which referred to it as a, "silly, paranoid , Right-wing Fantasy.". This was back in the 1980's. Wolverines! BTW, proudly served as a US Paratrooper, back in the 1980's. AIRBORNE All the Way!
1980's America... God, I miss it SO much.
RIP Patrick Swayze and Frank McRae
Great times...
Raygun destroyed this Nation.
Me too, I was in my 20’s and, as Seger put it, “Like a Rock”. Unfortunately, the 90’s came and brought the beginning of what we see today. 😞
Obama fostered in this brave new world. The beginning of the end of the United States
@@VoodooDangerbirdYea, OK sugar britches
"I would say they were way off course---very unusual". Famous last words.
Actually it was “my friend “ his last words. 😢
And Famous last mistake - walk straight out the door right towards a soviet paratrooper with a machine gun
@@bdavidlyday2223 He tought he was using his second amendement right.
Remember the history teacher & the lesson he was teaching? Stay out of that circle...!
I always got a chuckle out of that lesson too
It sets up the whole situation for the Wolverines. Fighting behind enemy lines and surrounded
Frank McRae was such a great
actor
and, that's exactly what's gonna happen here if Harris gets in office.
The mongols had awesome tactics but it only worked on open land. In mountains and forests they did not succeed, and often didnt even try to invade. Such that Northern Russia, Finland, Sweden+Norway, Germany, and other places with forests or mountains they did not invade.
@@donnyjackson8845 Cute. As if Trump wasn't already bought and paid for by Putin....
How come in the '80s did Hollywood produce so many great movies showing the US Northwest and the Rocky Mountains?... Red Dawn, The Goonies, First Blood, Wargames... Back then, when I was a kid, my dream was to live in one of those small towns on the Rockies or the US Northwest.
Red Dawn was actually filmed in New Mexico. But takes place in Colorado
You should look at a map, dude.
@@Frankie5Angels150 I am going to amend my comment. I thought Red Dawn was filmed in Washington State. But I was wrong.
@@TheDiego10forever no worries. Western Oregon and Washington are very beautiful. Part of Astoria was filmed for the Goonies among other films
@@iowa_lot_to_travel9471 Thanks! I find all the US beautiful!
I always remember the dead kid hanging from the school window.
Always wondered if that is his only acting credit.
Chilling. Then you remember that happens for real in American schools and it's terrifying.
It foreshadowed Littleton, also in Colorado.
@@jm5732 Laughed my a#% off! Great comment!
I remember going to see this at theatres twice when it opened. This film was such a hit in '84 as it took all our fears and put them on the screen.
As an 80s kid I agree. There was a real fear of the communists. Looking back, who knew that the real invasion was in our institutions of education.
and thia Ià exactly what's going to happen to us soon.
@@donnyjackson8845 Ok bot
me too, 2 nights in row.
When you look at it from todays standpoint, this comes nowhere near reality.
I have always loved that truck he’s driving.
Toyota f 250 square body
@@DeeDee-vo6si
Very funny.😂
@@DeeDee-vo6siI eat eggs
Oh, yeah. LOL. Great truck. Didn't Michael J Fox drive that on "Ahead to the Past" movie?
@@shogunfox7141 nah you're thinking of the car, a Detomaso DC-8
That $1.249 gal ⛽️ price got me 😢😢😢
Yeah, but the interest rate on a mortgage was 18%. Pick your poison, my friend.
@@tenofivelips Yeah, but a house cost $40,000 or less. And a gun rack in the back of your truck with guns was perfectly normal, even at a High School. And $1.29 for gas would have been really high. Gas was around $1 into the mid 90's. At least in the Midwest.
It was $0.99 in 1992.
@atw9913 Hahaha, yeah, houses were $40kish here in the NorthEast too, but salary were $20, 000. It cost $1.17 a week for health/dental/life insurances, minimum wage was $5.75. National average for gas in 93 was $1.11. Gas prices are never coming down, 30% of my state runs on renewables, someone has to pay for oil's profit loss and it's not going to be the people who vote for progress. We learned why high schoolers can't have guns in racks anymore back in 1999.
Can confirm. Pumped gas while in high school. (NJ did and still has gas attendants)@@situated4
The very first PG-13 movie. I was 13 when it came out. Wolverines!!!
This is why better than the remake
Preach it brother
PREACH IT
Way better and more realistic for the time
As far as I am concerned the remake does not exist!
The remake isn't even worth thinking about.
And more realistic
It the 80s , it was vey common for the hood on a car to fly open dramatically when shot .
Strange how it ceased to be the case.
John Milius....he was really something; This was especially cool watching this in a small Colo mountain town in 1984....
1984 was the perfect year! Oh I remember it very well. Lots of things went on in 1984.
💯‼
my year of birth
Yes! The Detroit Tigers won the World Series! Ok, us here in Michigan, it was a big deal at the time. 😂
Funny how the soldiers go from attacking anything that moves to letting the truck drive pass by 100 armed soldiers who don't seem to care.
It's a movie. 'nuff said
@@MorganOtt-ne1qj Yeah, it's a movie, with a script, where you can write anything and change anything you want, including writing a realistic escape scene.
@@SpaceTravel1776 but I bet you enjoyed the scene! Lol, my friend.
Like 67 soldiers could have wasted that truck. 😂
@@s.i.r.7832 It's a GM square body! Built like a tank! 😂
Mr Tisdale was a great history teacher 😢
he was 😢😢😢
He wiil be on the American hitory book(in post WW3). As the first civilan casuality of the Soviet invasion force in the town of Calumet, Colorado.
The actor is Frank McRae, a former Chicago Bears defensive tackle who passed away in 2021 at age 80.
I think he was the only Black character in the Whole Movie.
@@HoldenNY22 and he was shot on open street by an uniformed. so a quite normal day in the US 😉
What a film, with the right director and cast it would make a great Netflix series
Actually days tru
Idk how you could watch this terrible movie and turn it into a terrible series.
Sorry I only speaker de Englishh@@xro1983
Nah Gen z ain't fighting back. They would probably join the commies
Netflix ruins everything they touch.
paratroopers landing on a foreign land, and the first thing they can think is spending their limited RPG ammo on a school. That's legit.
Yeah. Frankly , as targets go, the entire town seems a little...I don't wanna say "useless," but...
They’re integrating with American customs
@@robforrester3727Useless would indeed be the right word. Most small towns like that are kind of tucked away, so any hope of gaining a significant amount of national control is initially nonexistent. White House probably wouldn't even care enough to deploy troops YET...and this may be the one advantage to attacking such a place. Now, this is just a thought, but it could be the strategy was to INFILTRATE and then work from the INSIDE. You know, kind of like that one rat nest you can never seem to find, because you never think to look inside your wall.
@@robforrester3727 did you happen to notice the Rail Lines in the Movie. It may have been a critical Hub, and thus a legitimate Target. Also, location location location. What may seem useless to the untrained eye, may be of significant Military importance. Just one old Paratrooper talking, here. AIRBORNE All the Way.
Its america, thats where all the guns are
Don't be the dead kid in the window. Survive. One of my all-time favorite movies.
(dead kid) I can only be myself...
I was 12 and so happy to just be a kid and play baseball with my neighbors kids. What a simple life we had.
What a simple life it was before every kid got a trophy.
I am 18. I literally never experienced any of the things people are relating to in the comments. Its like that whole culture was thrown out the window when the 2000s hit. Could also just be my situation.
I met more friends online than I did on my playground.
@hottomek7423 yep, everything changed after 2001 😢
@@adrukova1407 🥲
Haven't seen the original in years...and forget the opening sequence. Very moving. Surprise invasion on your enemy's home turf. Seemed like it could happen back then...now a days...seems like you could look out your own front door...
really? what kind of shythole do you live in?
Very moving? More like very dumb.
@@lou1970Clearly you weren't born until after 1991.
Are you serious??
@@lou1970big time
No cgi a true master piece
Saw this when i was 9, with my older brother when it came out. The first PG-13 movie
It’s not paramilitary. It’s military.
News flash: Para does not mean parachute in all but a few specific cases. 🤦🏻♂️
Get'em, Frank!
Well they all packed pair of chutes (main and backup), which is where the name comes from.
@@zchris87v80okay genius
Not a “paramilitary” invasion; just a military invasion.
No para as in paratrooper
"Special military operation"
@@jakeryan152yes but paramilitary is not the correct terminology. It would be paratrooper. Paramilitary would be irregular forces
@jakeryan152 that's not what the word means, look it up
Lol why are they attacking the high school like it’s some vital target.
That is the weirdest part of the movie.
A perfect HQ.... in a evil way
They were mad they lost the football game
@@Ham-Man-Hammy😂
@@Ham-Man-Hammy Ha! This makes the movie so much better!
The idea that an enemy could drop paratroopers in the heart of the USA in 1984 always cracked me up
Who would immediately engage the first school they found with everything they had! Hilarious......
while letting a lot of the young males…who are not armed…escape!! priceless…
Yeah, Hollywood is good at doing entertainment, but not so good at depicting plausible scenarios.
Just the kind of thing the Biden presidency would allow - vote for America , vote Trump !! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@Tgif1111Nope!
I bought this film on Prime so that I can, and do, watch it as often as I want. Never seems to grow old for me. IMO, doing a remake of this movie was almost sacrilegious.
I have it on (gasp!) DVD! 👍
@@MorganOtt-ne1qjditto
Very well said. Especially the last part.
Agree, I watched part of the remake and tossed it.
There was a remake? I heard they attempted one a few years back but it tested so poorly they called it sacrilege and tried to erase it from history.
One of the best 80s action movies ever made.
Kids today in school get to relive some of these scenes with mass shootings.
@@bohemianwriter1 Too far.
After Invasion: USA, Red Dawn (original version) it's the greatest movies about invaded by Soviet Union
@@bohemianwriter1 no russian
We musta sat through this movie 5 or 6 times! Even had the poster! A Real Cult Classic. Love It! God Bless...
The basic premise of this movie is so completely unbelievable, even then (I lived through this period and no one I know feared invasion, we feared nuclear holocaust)
💯 Child of the 70s/80s myself. This was a spectacularly xenophobic, scaremongering film. Ridiculous premise, pandering to the lowest common denominator.
Its an action movie, its supposed to be fun and entertaining, not believable.
@@drtyboy I agree with you, but I can only suspend disbelief so far. It's not that any of the 80s Arnie S films were particularly plausible (e.g. Commando) but, personally in my opinion, give me any of those over Red Dawn. But it's all subjective. Good luck to you.
Oh yeah? What about now?!
Tell that to the kids at that concert in Israel.
Loved this back in the day. I was 14. Happy days.
One of the greatest movies made in the 80s...the cast is very good as well....
not even top 20..... a mediocre, lame film that wasn't that big of a hit....
LOL. You might want to watch a few more films if you think that was the "greatest [movie] made in the 80s"! :)
@user-wr4uz8pg7m Buddy relax...I'm 48..grew up in the 80s..ofcourse I'd think it was one of the greatest movies ever made....millennial.....
Yet another movie with Patrick Swayze overacting and crying every five minutes with his bad mullet.
I remember watching this at the theater and wanting to enlist afterwards. Lol
I was in Kitzigen Germany when I saw this the first time...
I wouldn’t enlist for country if they paid me billions of dollars
What am I fighting for
More lunatics in congress
A mass shooting nearly every week
No thanks
This country sucks
that was the idea bro
Enlist in a resistance movement? I don't think you have to do that.
The pentagone should be proud of it's movie I guess.
This movie made for some great daydreams in class lol.
growing up after watching this was always imagining some thing like this happening in real life - as a kid was cool thought.
What you don't realize is that it WILL HAPPED IN THE NEAR FUTURE 2 COUNTYS RUSSIA AND CHINA THE INVASION OF THE U.S.A
Look up prohetic dreams of invasion of the u.s.a God is warning America that this will happen in the near future????
Unfortunately Israel just experienced a eeriely similar situation.....
There is no way all those enemy military planes can fly all the way across the ocean and into Colorado without our own military detecting it on radar and intercepting them. They would have to nuke us first.
That something just might happen in the near future. The only difference will be the enemy won't be invaders because they are already here right now.
Loved the opening quote by Teddy Roosevelt!
My son was on a baseball team when he was little called the Wolverines. A couple of the other dads and I would scream WOLVERINES!!! People thought we were crazy, but we knew
40 years on and I STILL have not watched this movie.
Same 😂
I have not seen this movie since the late 80s or so. That kid hanging out of the window in the classroom has stuck with me ever since.
@Saew-ks2ry Ive felt we are in ww3 for over a year now. Whats your sources?
Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees
Amen to that buddy.
Said Harry Dean Stanton in Repo Man but was also in this movie.
How about living on your feet instead of dying on your knees.
Like the guy in 5:08... he died with his gun in his hand. And given the brass on the ground, he might not have died alone.
Said Jenna Jamison
This was a wake up call even today
I like how you have to suspend a lot of disbelief on this scene....I mean, their military would've had to destroy so many comm systems and bypass anti-air systems including Jet intercepts to drop paratroopers right onto American soil.
...let alone in the middle of mainland US in freakin Colorado lol
You mean movies aren’t real!!!
I asked myself, what type of "leadership" would allow such things to happen.... We have one now.....
@@cctlg today russian invaders would be hailed and greeted by trumpists.
It was explained, somewhat. They were hidden on charter planes. There was nothing stopping them from going to Cuba and then to Mexico.
They were in commercial jets. I think the air force guy mentioned that detail.
This Movie is why we named our Mascot after the Turtle creek, Swissvale and Churchill 3 school merger INTO the WOODLAND HILLS Wolverines... Woodland Hills HS is in Churchill PA... Home games are played in Turtle Creek PA at the Wolverina.
HOME OF MANY NFL PLAYERS AND LEGENDS LIKE HALL OF FAMER JASON TAYLOR Who I went to HS with and ROB GROWNKOWSKI... Lousaka Polite and a few others way after I graduated.
WOLVERINES IS A GEN X MASTERPIECE... LAST GENERATION OF FERRAL CHILDREN.
oh we're still feral. just not.... children
I'm just glad Pony Boy and Randy became friends.
That was in The Outsiders
@@ninajones5369 Yes. Red Dawn is the sequel to the Outsiders. That's what I'm saying.
Watched this scene in high school. Completely shook me.
That patriot with the 1911 died with his boots on.
“do i need to re-watch this movie when I get home after work today?”
“Yes, other Jeff, yes you do”
If you dropped into a farm town like that they would be dead before they hit the ground…
Confirm they're a threat, first.
Amazing opening scene, and a brilliant choice to mention Genghis Kahn. He was a mad genius of strategy, and his warriors were the most skilled, resourceful, resilient and brutal of the time. We should all be grateful that Mongolia didn't have a huge population and a bigger army because if it did, Genghis and his heirs would have no doubt conquered the world!
Ultimately, the muslims of Egypt defeated the Mongol army.
Mr. Tisdale used to be a great history teacher
Great opening

We will NEVER surrender!
You already have.

Yes ,”Ape Face”, is how Two Bit referred to him.
Wait: no! Isn't Sody Pop driving Pony Boy? And what about Day Job, Smoke Break, Pocket Fisherman, Snake Ears, Feast 'r Famine and all the rest of the Off-Brand GI Joes?
Forgot Charlie Sheen was in this. Must have been one of his first.
I know right
It WAS his first major movie.
And Jennifer Gray, Lea Thomas, Thomas C Howell, and a bunch of other up and comers.
The bumper sticker “they can have my gun when they pry it from my cold dead fingers” and actually doing it. was brought to you by the Democratic party.

The remake was awful!
Such an iconic movie.
Study it.
Whenever they show an RPG in a movie, it's always super slow. A real RPG is as fast as a bullet.

I can’t help but honk this would look and seem way better with less troops in one area and more spread out.. at no point is it reasonable to think they could escape when they were targeting anyone running with rpgs and machine guns...they must’ve have drove right through 80+ People but for the sake of their survival never get shot at... the whole thing would be more manageable and realistic without the sheer numbers of enemy’s in one location.
Combat can be funny. People tunnel vision. One guy twitches and another guy says "let him go". Sometimes the guys with guns shoot, sometimes they don't. Sometimes what sounds ridiculous just...happens, in real life.
is it ever explained why they would stage in invasion in a random rural town in Colorado, and how exactly they got that far inside American airspace?
Yes, if you watch the movie, a lot of worldbuilding went into this. NATO was dissolved, a major wheat crop failure occurred in the Soviet Union which in turn forced them and their Warsaw Pact allies into an invasion of the U.S. to try and capture it and its heartland. Prior to the invasion, the USSR sends agents up through the US border, they in turn infiltrate military bases. The Soviets then invade via air and land from Alaska down through Canada from the north, and up from the south through Mexico, with their agents sabotaging bases and SAC/NORAD, and causing chaos in general. The Soviet coalition forces attempt to cut the U.S. in half in a divide-and-conquer strategy, but the U.S. military fights them to a standstill in the Rocky Mountain region.
There was an intro at the start of the movie that explained it, and later the rescued Air Force colonel added some of the larger detail of the "why & how".
Something similar to this happened in Israel. The Israeli .GOV got complacent, and off-duty members of the IDF could only keep 50rds of ammo at home. The defenders used up their allotment of 50rds and they were killed.
This was a beautiful historical movie which inspired controversy and critical thinking 🇺🇸
I don’t think you know what historical means
@JohnsonWooten-cl1so He's saying the fictional movie is a piece of cinematic history, not that the events in the movie are historically accurate. 🤷
@@JohnsonWooten-cl1so "The moment God crapped out the third caveman, a conspiracy was hatched against one of them." Colonel Hunters S Gathers
It was farfetched and ridiculous
@@JohnsonWooten-cl1so Or "critical thinking."
Lol! That kid in the window.
Who the heck do they think they are?
One of the many movies my parents didn’t allow me to see, back in the day! Haha!
The teacher will always be remembered. God bless him.
I always wanted to hear the rest of the lecture. Hun battle strategy seems pretty interesting.
well you can READ about it in the book "March of the Titans: The Complete History of the White Race"@@mr.raslyon6626
Well, according to the Mongols themselves Milius' interpretation is total rubbish.
He was just tryin' to get a dialogue going! "Hey, friend..." POP!
Loved this movie.
I was born in 2002 and this was my first swayze movie I ever watched, I was immediately hooked and kept asking my partners who is that guy? What movies does he have now? They told me he had passed and I was like whaaaat? I also didn’t realize his brother was Charlie until years later 😂. I think growing up my top 5 films had to be Red dawn, Dazed & Confused, Green mile, pulp fiction and The Crow. Growing up none of the kids I went to school with knew any of these movies til like highschool 😂
Dazed And Confused may as well have been a documentary. My parents grew up in the exact area the movie is set in and were graduating the same year. When I tell you that movie was incredibly accurate, I don’t really have the right words to convince you properly. It was exactly what life was like in Texas in the mid-1970s.
You should look up the movie “The Outsiders” about prep rich kids vs poor greaser kids in 60s Tulsa. Swayze, Matt Dillon, Tom cruise, Emilio Estevez, Charlie sheen, ect ect….. all star cast
3 of my top 4 fav movies are, this one, The Outsiders and Point Break. He was good in Ghost and Roadhouse too. Dude was a good actor.
if you want a late 70s documentary search out
Over The Edge 1979
Matt Dillon's first movie; and yt is running it for free right now
[note: a little less happy than D&C]
One of the best early 80s movies evertrrrrrr
This movie was so over the top. There was never any danger of this scenario playing out.
That's why the intro made it clear this was a alternate timeline that made it possible.
@@MM22966 I missed that introduction that the movie is set in an alternate timeline. Thank you for clarifying.
@@nsnopper You are welcome. It's more of a narrative "coat hanger" to hang the rest of the story they wanted to tell on, but I give Millius & co. a B+ for at least making a case for how WW3 could start in the middle of Colorado.
I remember thinking it couldn't happen in the usa. But it could certainly happen in a small European country like the one I love in Ireland
Crazy seeing "September" being portrait as being in the fall, with the leafs changing and a brisk look to the air. Now a days the leafs don't even start to change till early Novembe. Past 4 years it's been 60° well into November
This documentary is even more terrifying than Idiocracy!
Today's reality of Ukraine. There is even a unit named Wolverines, inspired by this movie.
Patrick’s truck not being blown to bits & instead dude hitting the school bus = plot armor
As a Disabled Combat Veteran and Intel Analyst looking at our border and "State of the Union." All I can say is get ready...
The incompetent "leadership" has allowed such things to happen.... because of the open borders.....
blah blah blah
@@MrSteeDoo No kidding. "YES! The mental patients from Central American that the nice Mister Trump talked about are going to be para-troop landing in Colorado! GET READY!"
I feel old, I remeber seeing this movie in the theatre! Was great then!
As is traditional, the black guy dies first. :(
Huh?
@@Marc-io8qmThe English Teacher, Mr. Tisdale. Black guy. Gets popped by the paratrooper he's trying to greet.
@@Marc-io8qm It is a old trope in American movies, usually scifi movies, that the black guy gets it first, especially if he is the only black guy in the film.
That's right.
I used to have this movie on DVD and I would watch it over and over I think that I watched it about a thousand times or more
Gas at $1.25/gallon.
That’s pretty high for 1984. The first time I filled up in 2001 it was $1.29.
this movie never gets old just us that gets old
Still a very shocking scene
Best movie of all time. “ it keeps me warm at night “
40 years ahead of its time.
Love this movie, we still watch it once in awhile…
Pretty sure this was not a documentary.
Yet
@@MorganOtt-ne1qjStupidity.
I was 12 when this came out. How can I explain what it was like to see it in a movie theater. People were FIRED UP!
9 4:56 4:56
loved it and still one of my favs!
The 80s!!! Great movies...great music👍♥️
Ultimately this movie is simply impossible to believe. There would be no way Russia could undertake an prolonged engagement like this if they were driven by famine.
I actually had wondered what type of incompetent "leadership" that would allow such type of attack in the US.... We have it now.....
They could, and they would have tried it except for President Reagan.
I forgot to mention it's a MOVIE. But ya never know
Pretty much everything about it is nonsense. Surprise invasion on the continental United States rather than Europe. Their long range bombers somehow being able to reach the US undetected and then dropping... Paratroopers. Said paratroops randomly gunning down civilians in the middle of Nowhereville, Colorado. As if several thousand paratroopers in random towns with no logistics could accomplish anything. I bet some boomers at the time were conditioned to believe this could happen.
I just noticed in this movie western Europe is neutral and China is a US ally. So I guess they rearranged an alternate universe to at least be slightly believable on a geopolitical level.
Very Unlikely? Yes but nothing is truly impossible. If you watch the intro it was more than just Russia, pretty much all of Central America and Cuba went communist raised large armies and joined in. The scenario they weaved wasn’t entirely unbelievable
From 5:37 to 5:53, there are various shots that are looking down the street, and in the background you can see barricades, police cars and policemen blocking the road to allow the movie to be filmed while normal life goes on in the background.
How implausible this movies looks today. I mean, even more so than when it was produced.
It's a movie dude. And the Soviet Empire back then was not what Russia is today.
This movie is the reason I thought we were being invaded (not just attacked) on 9/11! It came out when I was 10 and had no conception of anything like this
WOLVERINE'S, god I'm old 🤣🎅
One of the things that brought people into the theatres for this picture was that it was the first PG-13 film released, motivated mostly by the violence in Temple of Doom. Most theatres enforced the R rating restriction in those days.
In hindsight, this was an overly sympathetic portrayal of Russian soldiers.
