Synopsis
On Christmas 1969, during the Vietnam War, a group of fresh, young American soldiers arrive at an army camp in Vietnam and are sent to patrol in a nearby jungle. After they kill a few Viet Cong soldiers and lose a couple of their comrades in the battle, they return to camp. They are sent on a mission to destroy a Viet Cong village. After they destroy the village, they embark on a hazardous journey through a jungle to board a helicopter and return to camp. But, it's only a matter of who will survive the Viet Cong's gunshots and make it to the helicopter.
