Cool :]

I have to say though, that I did like this movie :]

But then, I always wasa sucker for the "Group of Teenagers takes on
Terrorists/Nazi's/Communists" theme that was heavily prevailant in a lot of
80's movies :]

Is there anyone else out there who along with their friends lived this
movie when it first came out and could pick out which pieces of
equiptment were correct and which ones weren't ? Some one in our group
decided to annoint each of us as characters from the movie. I was the kid
who freaked and got killed on the turret of the T-72 (or was it a T-64 it
has been so many years I forget).

AHHHHHH the Nostalgia for when we knew who the bad guys were :)

Ever notice how just about every time Commies said that word, something
blew up? :]

Bull -- WHo spent a 4 hour trip in the back of a pickup truck blowing up
"Russian Tanks" on the freeway with his cousin :]
