Prolouge
(Nathan POV)
[P.S. This part of the battle of khe sanh is fiction and never happened]
I ran towards the Tanks for cover as the NVA and Vietcong's open fire at our convoy of tanks and trucks. Gunshots sound off almost everywhere, explosions, and bodies falling like flies.
It was my third day at khe sanh and it was brutal
We were on our way along with some US Rangers from the 2nd Battalion from the 75TH Rangers to support some US Army Soldiers and South Vietnam Soldiers that were pinned down by heavy fire from some NVA Troops...Now we're fucking stuck at this piece of shit.
While we were on our way there we were ambushed by the NVA And Vietcong from all the hell, from AK's to RPG's
As i went to the left side of the tank for cover then i saw my Best Friend Jack running towards me While opening fire with his M60 Machine Gun Gunning down a few NVA Troops.
As he ducked beside me he looked at me then said
"Rest of the squad is dead....they got killed by an RPG while Trying to save the Tank Driver..." Jack said looking at me he as tears in his eyes and was filled with anger and sadness
When i heard it my eyes went wide and i felt tears forming
"Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!" I yelled as i punched the ground
"Jesus Christ...John was supposed to get married after this...Dammit everyone Gerry, Danny, David...Oh Jesus David...David had kids..." I muttered as i felt tears flowing threw my face
"They didn't deserve that...They didn't deserve this shit!" I yelled as i was about to run out of cover preparing to gun them down
I was grabbed by jack and was pinned to the ground from him trying to stop me from getting myself killed
"Nathan, Calm down! I feel the same way you do, but we cant get ourselves killed, they wouldn't want us to get yourself killed because of them." Jack said as he removed his arm from me
He then reached his hand out for me then said
"Lets get some revenge for them." He said
I grabbed his hand and stood up wiping the tears away
We then started to pay attention to the battle
I saw a bunch of Marines using the Tank and truck as cover from the fire
"Alright...Cover me while i grab those Bazooka's on the ground." I said as i pointed to a Bazooka which was loaded and was on a Dead Tank Gunner
He nodded
As we got ready i yelled
"Cover Me!" I yelled as i ran towards the body while Jack covered me with his M60
I dropped to the ground and grabbed the Bazooka and i started running towards back the Tank which was currently opening fire
As i made my way back i peeked from the edge of the tank to see a group of NVA Starting to charge as with Bayonets in there AK's
I aimed at them and squeezed the trigger
The rocket was launched and when it reached its target there were Blood and body parts Flying through the Air
"Yeah Baby! Get some you fucking Gooks!" I yelled as i rushed back to cover
"Yeah Boy! Get some!" Jack said as he watched the The Body parts land on the ground
Normally when we see a site like this we either felt bad or disgusted but the death of our squad made us different
As i started to fire on some NVA The Gun fire lessen
I stood up seeing the Gunfire lessen i started to regain my Humanity and realized what i have done
I sat down and leaned on the Tank
I placed my rifle on my lap and removed my helmet
I started to Realized what i have done and the Death of the squad
I started to cry as i hear some gunfire from the distance
I heard footsteps and i felt someone seat beside me
I looked to see it was jack having the some state i have
As we both started to sob
I placed my hand on my head trying to calm down
As we started to stop crying i just started to look around
There were body and body parts everywhere from The Gooks or from one of our own A burning tank on the back were our squad mates were blown to bits and a crashed UH-1 Huey On the Right side of the Convoy the people inside still alive but screaming in pain from the shrapnel and Some bullets while US Medics and corpsman treated them along with the other injured
Then i heard a Scream
"RPG!!! LOOK OUT!!!" A Marine yelled
Then i turned to see a Vietcong Holding an RPG Aiming at me and jack
"Shit." Jack said looking at the Vietcong
Then the Rocket was launched, it flew towards us as Marines and Soldiers start to Run.
"God Help me, RUN!!!" I yelled as we get up and started to run
But when that rocket hit the tank we were engulfed in the explosion of the Tank
Then everything went dark
