Fast wäre die Bravo Kompanie in einen Hinterhalt der Vietcong geraten, doch ein Eingeborenen-Stamm rettet sie. Die Dschungel-Bewohner hassen so gut wie alle an diesem Krieg Beteiligten - ausser den Amerikanern. Sie nehmen die GIs mit in ihr Dorf

The men from Bravo company are patrolling in the jungle when they find a fresh trail, one that leads to a trap by a group of VC soldiers. The Americans are out-numbered and in a very bad position. Suddenly they are rescued by Montagnards. Anderson trusts them, and has the squad follow them back to their village where they meet the translator -- an ex-GI (Kithem). The American is obviously hostile to the presence of Goldman and the rest of the Americans. Against Kithem and Anderson's better judgement, Goldman follows orders to help fortify the native ""compound"" against the VC. Kithem warns that all the American attention will only bring down the ARVN and NVA forces. Which is exactly what happens.

La compagnie Bravo est sauvée d'une embuscade par une tribu native de la montagne. Ces natifs ont de l'aversion pour tout le monde à l'exception des américains. Ces derniers vont les aider à améliorer leurs conditions de vie et leur protection face aux VietCong...
