i have nothing to talk about so im gonna talk about a scene from rambo John Rambo is a Vietnam veteren, a former Green Beret who escaped from a Communist prison camp in 1971 and still occassionally flashes back to days of torture within this camp. He drifts from town to town, a sleeping bag over his shoulder. In December 1981 Rambo makes a surprise visit to a house where, he was told, an old friend from the war, Delmore Barry, lives. But he learns that his friend died of cancer a year ago.
