It's the Gulf War and Andy McNab's (portrayed
by Sean Bean) is briefed to locate and destroy mobile
Scud missile launchers deep behind enemy lines. As the
"heli" lands in complete darkness on the
bleakest of terrain, each man is carrying the body weight
of a full grown man in equipment. Within twenty four hours their position is compromised by a young shepherd boy who is trying to keep his flock of goats together. Trying to gain his confidence fails and the boy runs to the nearby enemy positions. It is after noon and they have not been able to contact base due to a faulty radio. Cut off from base, and facing the worst weather conditions in the area for thirty years, they are in trouble, with two options..... try to make the RV or to try to make it to the Syrian border. Between them and the RV there will be many enemy patrols, and the border to Syria is a mere 200 KM in steadily worsening weather conditions.............. Bravo Two Zero is their true story, based on Andy McNab's best selling novel of the same name. |
