Flame?

Because his buddy Col Trautman was captured by a tortuous Russian commander while doing a commando raid that Rambo explicitly refused to participate in? And he regretted that decision and wanted to rescue his friend?

Combined with right when he got to the afghan resistance camp the Russians slaughtered hundreds of afghans with HIND helicopters?

Wasn't Russia already mostly withdrawn from Afghanistan by then?
