Rambo: First Blood Part II

Three years into First Blood, former commando John Rambo is visited by his old commander, Sam Trautman. With the war in Vietnam over, the public has become increasingly concerned over news that a small group of US prisoner of war have been left in enemy custody. To placate their demands for action, the US government has authorized a solo infiltration mission to confirm the reports. As one of only three men suited for such work, Rambo agrees to undertake the operation in exchange for a pardon. He is taken to meet Marshall Murdock, a bureaucratic government official overseeing the operation. Rambo is temporarily reinstated into the US Army and instructed that he is only to photograph a possible camp and not to rescue any prisoners or engage enemy personnel, as they will be retrieved by a better equipped extraction team upon his return.
