9th Company
What were the members of 9th Company expecting after surviving grueling basic training and deploying into Afghanistan? Surely not the brutality and the extended tour of duty they encounter in this Russian war film set not post-9/11, but in 1988, when the formidable Soviet military machine sought, and failed to achieve, victory in the Middle East.
