Marines Attack #8
The main story, "Ambush in Viet Nam," follows PFC Moore, who is herded into the jungle during a village firefight while injured, and a fellow medic named Paul. An enemy soldier demands to know the location of U.S. Marines taken to a nearby village, threatening to kill them unless Moore reveals where the men are held. Moore and Paul attempt to locate the 500 Marines positioned northwest near Narrow Stream, with the goal of leading them back to rescue the captured men. The Chinese Red Army is revealed to have led the way to the Viet Nam headquarters where the prisoners are being held. Throughout their mission, Marines including Frankie Dill and Corporal Lukoski work to locate Big Luke and navigate the dangerous enemy territory while contending with limited ammunition.
