Must see documentaries..

Ukraine, enemy in the woods, incredible, absolute must watch
We watched this documentary last night on sky catch up, and as you rightly say, an absolute must watch.

The hour long film pieces together body cam footage from Ukrainian soldiers, defending a vital railway line on the eastern front. It captures the intense struggle faced by a unit of ninety nine soldiers from Berlingo battalion, some of them still teenagers, that fiercly defended 500 metres of the 1,500k front line.

What the lads lacked in resources, they more than made up for with their unwavering courage and patriatism, as they fought the enemy head on, sometimes at very close quarter.

At the end of their seven week rotation, and out of the ninety nine brave defenders, sixty six were seriously wounded, with ten of their combatants killed in action, including Fury and his sidekick Addidas, who defended their dug out to the last from heavy infantry attack.

Rip Fury and Addidas, and all of the courageous defenders of Berlingo battalion.Glory to ukraine: Glory to the heroes.

Apologies Doots for the embarrasing faux pa, sometimes I need to concentrate more as my chubster fingers thrash away at the keyboard. That particular segment was a defining part of the documentary that enabled a sense of perspective, as to the absolute carnage and brutality of war.

As Mrs bellend mentioned, this is a not to miss documentary concerning the bravery, cameraderie and reliance of an active combat unit filmed in the heat of battle. There's no misting out of engagements with the Orcs, so viewer discretion is recommended.
