Nightmares that Kill
A short while after being accepted as a student at New York University, Ted Harris, a Canadian, replaces a sick friend at his workplace, thus violating the conditions of his student’s visa. To avoid being expulsed from the USA, he joins the Marine Corps which implies taking courses on ‘Military Strategy and The Use of Explosives’ in addition to ‘Basic Training.’
As a result of a Presidential decision, Ted is precipitated into a long-lasting confrontation with the North Vietnamese Secret Service Commander.
Nguyen Quang Hung, a South Vietnamese Special Forces Officer, becomes Ted’s teammate in various undercover operations.
Ted witnesses his fellow soldiers being turned into human torches, stabbed by falling bamboo traps, shot or beheaded.
Ted is overwhelmed by guilt building nightmares—his dead fellow soldiers asking him if his survival is fair when they had to pay the ultimate price.
From one skirmish to another across Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, Ted and Hung keep crossing swords with an anonymous general called ‘General Shadow’ by the Americans. Eventually, Ted and Hung are captured and tortured. They narrowly escape death.
The illusive General Shadow, in his spiteful will to defeat Ted at all costs, gets his fiancée executed.
Ted is overwhelmed by his recurring nightmares which gradually he cannot distinguish from reality.
After barely surviving the green jungle of Vietnam, is Ted going to be overcome by his nightmares of the jungle?
