to:

* TooDumbToLive: Tries to attack a fleeing VC squad and charges into an open field '''with absolutely no cover, completely exposing him to sniper fire.''' If it wasn't for Cobber, he would've bled to death.



* TheNeidermeyer

to:

* TheNeidermeyer
TheNeidermeyer: He's in charge of a failed mission (depicted in the intro) near the DMZ which ends with his marines either getting shot by the [=VCs=] or blown up by minefields and [=RPGs=]. Boone, who participated (and gets wounded) in said mission, hates him so bad that he filed a complaint and he almost got court-martialed. Cobber seems to hate him as well.
-->'''MACV soldier''': Rivalry between army and marines. The marines swept it under the table.

* FaceHeelTurn
-->'''Nhut''': Me fight with Viet Minh against French. But me no like commies, they damned son-of-a-bitches. We must fight French, no Vietnamese, but they fight Vietnamese too, so commies be boss of all. I no like, so I go south and joined LLDB.
