Or a North korean soldier during the korean war...
Or playing the other side in Delta Force Black hawk down.
I actually made some very good missions (a campaign of 5 missions) for Delta force 2, involved vehicles, helicopter transport, airpower etc... and they were all to be played on russian side during cold war.
so the enemy had black hawks, and you had Mi-16 and such. it was quite interesting except that i couldn't get the voices to be ehm "american"... so the story was then set in areas with CIA supported warlords and commanders (such as in afghanistan).
unfortunatelly i deleted them after i mistakenly thought that i already burned them on CD. so they are lost now
but yeah some games that are "politically non-correct" (whatever that means in democracy) are fun. while others are not really interesting from a "normal" person's perspective.
