[Cuban Army Col. Bella and Soviet General Bratchenko go for a walk outside the local Soviet-American Friendship Center]
General Bratchenko:
What is a "Wolverine"?
Colonel Bella:
A small animal...like a badger, but terribly ferocious. It is also the name of the local school sports collective.
Bratchenko:
They're beasts, Ernesto. You must kill every one of them eventually. It's the same as Afghanistan. They'll never stop.
Bella:
Look. I was always on the side of the insurgents. I have no experience in these matters. But it would seem necessary to win the support of the people. As our opponents used to say in Vietnam: "Win their hearts and minds."
Bratchenko:
And they lost, Ernesto.
Bella:
Of course, General.
Bratchenko:
Things are paralyzed at the front, Ernesto. Morale is crucial right now. Keep the men in the secured areas. You'll see how they forget about these [to Bella in disdain] "Wolverines."
[the Soviet-American Friendship Center explodes and the two are startled]
Nicaraguan Captain:
[to Colonel Bella] Are you all right?
Bella:
Yes, yes, help them! [to Bratchenko] You were saying, comrade?
Bratchenko:
Shut up!
