The unofficial motto of the GRU special forces: "above us is only stars." Scouts were prepared for practically impossible tasks. For example, to secretly penetrate into "regime" (entry only on special passes) the city of Krasnokamensk and imitate a sabotage at the mining and enrichment plant, where uranium ore was enriched. Another time, it was necessary to “blow up” the buildings of the city department of the KGB and the city PBX.
The quality of their preparation scouts happened to check "behind the river - in Afghanistan. So, in 1987, he was ordered to get a copy of the American MANPADS "Stinger". The Minister of Defense who had received this trophy promised the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
The author’s memoirs about the training and combat everyday life of the 24th special forces division are accompanied by portraits of his colleagues - and who became legends of special forces, such as Oleg Onishchuk, Evgeny Sergeyev, Evgeny Bykov, and almost unknown heroes.
In this book there is not a single fictional event or episode, all the heroes are real, however, the names of some of them are betrayal for ethical reasons
