The story

In December 1981, United States Army Vietnam War veteran John Rambo visits the home of his army buddy Delmar Barry and learns that he has died from the effects of Agent Orange exposure.

Feeling slighted, Rambo begins to return to town, where Teasle quickly arrests him and leaves him to be processed under the supervision of cruel chief deputy Art Galt, who leads other deputies in harshly abusing Rambo.

Teasle organizes a search party with his fellow deputies, air support and dogs.
