John Kettler Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Here is a first rate, unflinching, and intimate look at the 93rd Brigade alerted and called into action, for it was the most combat ready formation available. Doc has excellent extensive footage and extensive informative interviews with the Ukrainians in the fight. There are many actions in here that would easily fit CMBS, too--if you ignore later actions at the Donetsk Airport deep into the fight there where five divisions' worth of Russian mortar, artillery and rocket fire rained down daily (15,000 rounds/day). By contrast, when the North Vietnamese Army did long range bombardment of An Loc, South Vietnam, the world was shocked by 1200 rounds/day. The interviewees are easily understood, and there is full English VO, too. Titles keep the viewer oriented as to the date and battalion being discussed. Supporting graphic is a large computerized map put up to show who was where, course of action, etc. Part 1 Regards, John Kettler Edited September 30, 2021 by John Kettler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 Already intense combat at the Donetsk Airport escalates, and it's altogether too "You are there" to be remotely comfortable viewing. Much of the footage is blurry, jumpy or both, but what do you expect when fire is pouring in, the building is on fire, etc.? Nor is it just the Donetsk Airport where battle rages.
