I knew you would come up with that K but don`t make a habit out of it, you could do it yourself with some simple tools By the look of it the shots r taken around 6:30 am.

Shadow NX 1 Posted November 19, 2005 one of those guys is wearing his helmet over his winter hat Quite common in russian army, these guys were the typical ssh-68 aka Conehead helmet there is not much in the helmet that could keep your head warm plus they are issued in pretty big size. So best you can do is wear your Ushanka cap under it to keep your head warm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MS should really integrate it with the next release, but then again they couldn't spot quality apps if someone slapped it in their forehead. Nuff of that. @OFPCAT Looking good!

OFPCAT 0 Posted November 20, 2005 Yeah, the movie was about an event in Afghan War. But personally, I dont have the same feeling of many pictures made in Soviet time I'm familiar with. So I said it was a movie of Russian Federation although it told a story of Afghan War...
