In an interview singer James Blunt recalled how in 1999 he was ordered to attack 200 Russian troops (who had captured a politically important airfield first) by an American general.... The word "destroy" was used in the command. Thankfully he was saved from a court martial offence by telling the general "no" by a British general who stated his troops were not going to start WWIII.

He commanded them to just encircle them.. soon the Russians asked them if they had any spare water and food in exchange for sharing the airfield.
