How does the confrontation between Baba and the Russian soldier make Amir feel?

Baba and the Russian soldier got into a conflict because the Russian conflict because the Russian soldier wanted 30 minutes with one of the ladies in the van and Baba stood up for her. The soldier wanted to shoot him because he was so druged, but the second Russian soldier got to him and stopped him before there was a bigger conflict. Amir actually feels a sense of reverence for his father here.
