Nach siebzehn Jahren werden sechs US Elitesoldaten aus einem vietnamesischen Gefangenenlager entlassen und versuchen auf eigene Faust den Mann zu finden, der sie verriet. Britischer Fernsehfilm von James Keach.

Based on a story by Vietnam veteran Paul Staples, the film concerns six American Green Berets, held for 17 years in a Vietnamese POW camp. They are finally released in secret, during a delicate trade-talk session between Vietnam and the United States. Captain Tom Watkins, the ex-prisoners' CO, begins to suspect that government-man Adam Roth, who is in charge of the debriefing, may be pursuing a hidden agenda that will result in the early deaths of Watkins and the five men under his command.
