It is 1974. MAJOR DAVID DERUSSY is ordered to return to Cambodia for a second year as an assistant army attache to the Khmer Republic.

Pol Pots Murderous “Khmer Rogue” army is growing stronger and more aggressive. The republican army shows signs of crumbling. If its defenses pop like a soap bubble, DeRussy’s chances of dying go fro possible to probable.

America’s newspapers, magazines and television news programs all say that the United States is going to abandon the Khmer Republic.

How is DeRussy to answer when his Cambodian friends and comrades in arms ask him whether America will run away?

Most anyone can deliver DeRussy to the enemy to his own skin. Who is he to trust on the battlefield?
