[Ideas]A post apocalyptic story that you haven't seen before

[Pulp Hero]

I got this idea for a story after having post apocalyptic fiction and fictional military misconceptions on the brain.

The idea is hopefully a PA type story you haven't seen before:

The setting is the late 70s-early 80s, America and the USSR let fly with nuclear weapons and wipe eachother out, but the perspective of the story is from a group of U.S. military posted somewhere in the world outside of the U.S.

I haven't figured out their posting yet, it has to be somewhere not important enough to nuke or assault with a huge number of soviets (so not, like, Berlin) but still within the conceivable range of a conventional soviet military attack.

The story is from the perspective of 3-4 soldiers (M-60 team and a corporal from the squad) who get cut off after their post is over-run by soviets, and is more of an over the top action/dark comedy than a "survival" story, though is filled with a lot of plausible crazy things rather than "wacky" unrealistic action.

So, thoughts? Has this been done? What would you like to see?

EDIT: Oh, and to you Desert Thief fans (all, like two of you) no worries, I'm still writing, look for an update after the holidays (3-4 Jan)

Alaska?

Title misleading.

Africa or Latin America, two continents that people usually ignore in a nuclear war. Talk about how life changes there (Cold War proxy war funding for rebel groups dries up) and the ironic political fallout (Brazil and South Africa teaming up to deliver aid to Europe and the Americas).
