In commemoration of the Reds getting their asses kicked back across the Panj and returning to a country that would cease to exist in less than three years, lets take a look at the Do's and Don'ts in support of international socialism, unity and brotherhood:
Collection of counter-propaganda materials
January 1987
To the internationalist warrior:
Value the honor and integrity of Soviet citizenship highly. Without fail follow Soviet law, uphold the military oath and military regulations, carry out the orders of commanders and leaders and conscientiously fulfill your patriotic and international duty.
Prohibited!
Do not enter into unauthorized communications or acquaintances.
Prohibited!
Do not patronize Afghan stores, shops or markets whether government or private. Do not obtain from there or from private people any sort of item, food, liquor or drugs.
Do not undress to sunbathe or swim in the sight of local population or near houses since such behavior is not in keeping with national and religious customs of the Afghans and are considered offensive.
Prohibited!
Do not enter the courtyards or houses of the local population, look through their windows and doors, at the faces of women or enter into conversation with them.
Prohibited!
Do not accept any gifts, awards or presents from local authorities or other civilians having any value as a good or service.
Always display a high level of political alertness, always and everywhere maintain OPSEC, do no talk about official business or other topics of conversation concerning operational activities of units in the presence of outsiders.

With respect, if you exempt "...conscientiously fulfill your patriotic and international duty" and substitute, "To the International Peacekeeper", these messages sound less like "counter-propaganda materials" and more like current cultural-sensitivity warnings furnished to international peacekeeping forces in Afghanistan.
Russia went at Afghanistan a good deal more heavy-handedly than International Forces are doing. Still, in the end, their results were about the same.
