Came across this one quite by accident. Even to an extent surprised that such a film even distributed for public consumption.
From that era of the Cold War, an American Special Forces A team in training. Green Berets their mission to wage unconventional warfare in Soviet occupied Europe. I recommend highly the video without qualification or reservation.
More importantly the apparent unit commander the famous [at least within American special operations circles an almost legendary personality] Larry Thorne. Born Lauri Allan Törni. A Finnish national who had actually fought the Red Army as a partisan during World War Two.
Larry unfortunately meeting his demise [after years of distinguished service] in Vietnam. His body only relatively recently found, identified and repatriated to the USA for burial at Arlington Cemetery.
