I haven't told it this story. We might have lost the cold before we got a story. It's not my story. It's a buddy of mine who is special forces. And since we're talking about Afghanistan and the Russians, it was one of my favorite stories to listen to. My buddy would tell it all the time. And I want to share it with you because I think it's cool.

So during the Russian pullout of Afghanistan, there was a base. I forget where it is. I wish I could tell you the name. Somewhere in Afghanistan, the Russians are pulling out and they're driving everything in fucking trucks, right? So they're like, hey, here's the space. The Taliban's coming up. They're pushing back. Taliban, whoever it was, Mujahideen back then. They're fighting us.

We're pulling out and they're murking us as it goes. So what we're going to do is we're going to send everybody from this base in a fucking massive convoy. up this one road to get the fuck out of here, go to Russia, and a bunch of Spetsnaz are going to stand by, their special forces are going to stand by at the post and fight off anybody that comes.

And I forget if the Spetsnaz were just like there on a mission, like we're here to defend until whatever happens, or if they had some trucks and they could get out of there. Either way. the opposite side was ready. So the massive convoys leading with all the shit, they get in this valley, they get an ambush. Everybody in that ambush dies.

All the trucks, all the equipment, every single Russian dies. And then there was an attack on the post and it's all a Spetsnaz and they're all in one building and all the Mujahideen close in on this building and they kill every single one of this building.

He's like, do you see this big concrete pad? He's like, yeah. He's like, they're all buried here. They dumped all the Spetsnaz in a unmarked grave and then poured concrete over it. It's just all this dirt, a building that's all fucked up, and this random pad of concrete that's poured shitty by Afghans. And that's how the conversation got brought up. He's like, hey, what's this big concrete pad?
