Vietnam 1968
The seven survivors sat hunched around the broken radio, desperately hoping it would come to life, if only for a few seconds, for them to radio their coordinates for pick-up. They all stared at the lifeless instrument as their radio operator twisted knobs, fiddled with switches and took it apart then put it back together. Nothing. The captain stood, glared first at the useless piece of equipment then at the six men around him, before picking up the radio and smashing it against a tree. "Godamnit!" he screamed. The others looked impassively at the broken radio.
They had been stuck in the village, Ia Thuc, for three days, they were miles from where they were supposed to be and it was unlikely a patrol would find them. They had stumbled into the empty village after running into a minefield whilst under fire from a sniper they had named Elvis. Three of the platoon had been killed by Elvis, two in the minefield. They had nowhere to go, boths ways out of the village led to almost certain death, the minefield or the thick jungle where Elvis could pick them off.
Nine men had survived the minefield and Elvis to hide in the abandoned village three days ago, sometime in night two Spanky Burrage had his throat cut and a playing card with the work "Koko" inserted into his mouth. Last night Leonard Hamnet had met the same fate.
The killer had to be found, their only hope of survival was to hide in the village until an aircraft was spotted, the group had two emergency flares they could use to signal they needed help.
