Part 2/7:
The story initiates in 1969 during the last throes of the Vietnam War, focusing on an American soldier, Luke Devereaux. As he and his squad are given orders to secure a village, the horrors of war become immediately apparent when they encounter gruesome scenes of fellow soldiers and innocent civilians slaughtered, their ears grotesquely severed. The narrative portrays not only the brutality of combat but also hints at the psychological scars it inflicts.
