Apocalypse Then: Part Two
Edward Duggan encounters a Vietnamese soldier in the jungles of Vietnam during the Vietnam War. After getting a good look at the soldier something isn’t right. The soldier isn’t a man, yet he is a robot and now is hunting down Edward. As Edward is trying to outrun the T-800, who has now acquired a tank, he enters an American base. Once in the base his fellow troops blew up the tank.
Once on the base Edward reveals his reasoning for coming to the base, which is to get his wife and child. After getting them he solicits a ride on a helicopter to help them escape the madness in Vietnam. However, he should’ve focused on if the Terminator was really taken out back at the base.
