22. That Was One Of The Big Points In Ten Feet Tall

that the Soviet army was rife with ethnic tension and many of the conscripts didn't want to be there...

Also, a fair theory to approach the Cold War is the "mirror image" theory. The U. S. saw in the U.S.S.R a hegemonic power bent on world domination and the U.S.S.R saw the U.S in the same light...

As an aside I think most military experts would say our military equipment was superior to theirs...
