Нашёл такое вот, пишут со сслылкой на их офицера и разговоров с солдатами:
""Our goal was to put an end to fighting in the area and take control," said one senior lieutenant from Georgia's 3,500-strong 4th Brigade, a unit that bore the brunt of the fighting on 8 August. "Nobody in the army expected a war with Russia."
...
The South Ossetian conflict was the 4th Brigade's combat debut; an alarm call on 7 August took the unit by surprise, the officer said. That day, the unit mounted tanks and missile launchers on a train bound for the Georgian city of Gori, roughly 25 kilometers from Tskhinvali.
On the night of 7-8 August, the 4th Brigade launched a three-pronged offensive on South Ossetian positions in Tskhinvali and in two Ossetian villages, Znauri and Khetagurovo, to the south and west of the separatist capital. One of the assaults was a feint meant to divert South Ossetian militia forces away from the main objective. The stratagem allowed one of the 4th Brigade regiments to move into Tskhinvali. After a prolonged artillery barrage, Georgian forces gained control of most of the city apart from isolated pockets of resistance, another 4th Brigade officer said.
After nearly encircling the city, Georgian troops then tried to establish control over a key road to the north that led to South Ossetia's border crossing with Russia, one mid-ranking commander said. A 300-strong South Ossetian garrison near the village of Tbeti was defending the road.
As Georgian troops battled the garrison, the first convoy of Russian tanks appeared, the commander recounted. The showdown occurred in a relatively narrow field of battle. "We destroyed one tank after another, but they kept coming," the commander said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
...
The Georgian government claims that 171 soldiers died in the four days of fighting; 4th Brigade soldiers, however, state that some 100 of their number alone died in the conflict."
Численность её была 3500 тысячи. К войне с Россией не готовились. 7 числа подняты по тревоге и с танками и ракетными установками переброшены по железной дороге в Гори. В ночь 7-8 бригада по трём направлениям атаковала ЮО, на Цхинвал, Хетагурово и Заури. Одно из направлений было отвлекающим, чтобы туда оттянуть осетинские силы. После артподготовки вошли в Цхинвал и быстро его захватили, остались лишь отдельные очаги сопротивления.
После окружения города, бригаде поручили взять под контроль северную дорогу. Её защищал Осетинский гарнизон у Тбети, примерно из 300 человек. Пока они с ним возились, подошли первые российские танки, они из один за одним подбивали, но монгольские орды всё прибывали :). В итоге, по словам солдат, бригада потеряло около 100 убитыми.
Врут, поди, как всегда...
