Awesome / Fury: My War Gone By

Go To

  • Le Trong Giap and his partner, Sergeant Tin, succeeding in infiltrating the French base at Son Chau and pulling the wool over everyone's eyes, including Fury, Major Lallement and Steinhoff, by playing the part of two scared, incompetent colonial troops who speak bad English ("Mistah Fury, Mistah Fury!") and endure Steinhoff's beatings. They manage to play decisive parts in the final battle, with Tin blowing himself up along with Major Lallement's command bunker, mortally wounding the Major and Lieutenant Delfino and decapitating the French command in the process, while Giap blows up the artillery dump, thereby fatally weakening the base's defence and making it easier for the Viet Minh to overrun it. When Fury finally wakes up after almost 24 hours, Giap introduces himself properly to him, revealing that his bad English was also an act.
  • Frank's mysterious second tour in 'Nam, partially featured in this story. Frank and Nick Fury are on an intelligence mission in Laos. They're captured and Frank is recognized and respected for being the sniper who has killed forty people inside of two months. After a day of torture they escape, with Frank killing two guards with his hands tied behind his back. While Fury heads off to complete his end of the mission, Frank hunkers down on a hill with a rifle and shoots at least two dozen incoming enemy soldiers. On Fury's recommendation he made Captain.

  • The No-Holds-Barred Beatdown delivered to Barracuda courtesy of Nick Fury. To better elaborate, five years after the atrocities in Nicaragua, Fury retaliates on Barracuda by breaking most of his bones in a darkened room by beating him with a baseball bat while wearing Night-Vision Goggles.
    Nick Fury: Sometimes, the uniform fucks back.
