Tommy saw the Sergeant point at him, "You, you're with me." and began to ran over to him, ducking his head to avoid getting shot by the VC, or even his own side's crossfire. Halfway to him, Tommy tripped on the undergrowth, shouting out, "Shit!" as he scrambled to get back onto his feet.

Just as he got up, he saw a couple of Charlies, and aimed his gun at them. He aimed his sights right at one of their heads, and shot a couple of times, but missed. He lowered his aim to the chest, where he hit. He aimed at the other Charlie's chest, and got it after a couple of shots. He continued his journey over to the Sergeant, and ducked nearby. "What do you want?" he asked, breathing heavily from getting tripped up.
