This is a great and difficult game that takes place during the Vietnam
War in Vietnam (duh). It requires a lot of skill (or luck) and if you
beat the game, then you must be pretty good. Play the game to see it
yourself.

Part 5: Bosses

Stage 1:
The boss in this stage is made up of two guys that are exactly alike,
except the way they look. They throw some type of grenades at you, so
dodge them. And when they align directly in front of you, they might
shoot you with their flame thrower. There is a statue they hide behind,
and you can destroy it. Once you destroy it, there will be some Special
Grenades, pick it up, and it'll be much easier to beat this boss since
it is so strong, just use it on them. If they don't die yet, just dodge
and shoot them continuously until they die.
Stage 2:
This boss is a helicopter. It shoots two missiles simultaneously at
you from two of its guns over and over again. It also retreats and comes
back shooting the missiles at you once again. It can also shoot the
missiles at you while retreating. But after it retreats to a certain
point, you can't hurt it until it comes back. The easiest way to destroy
this boss is to shoot and throw your grenades at it, while dodging its
missiles in the direction that won't result in your death (burning).
Stage 3:
This boss is an airplane. You can shoot certain parts of the plane
that results in holes in the plane. Sometimes items will pop out of the
holes. Once the plane starts fighting back, four guns appear: the
bottom two shoot bombs, the top two shoot regular machine guns. Next,
there will be a big opening in the plane in which two guys appear
simultaneously and throw grenades at you, then another two appear and
do the same. This goes on for a while. Just dodge and shoot them. After
that, you will be lead to the top of the plane. Two helicopters will fly
over the plane (they shoot missiles), while three guns will pop out of
the plane and they shoot bombs. After quite some time, a door near the
cockpit opens and you will face a fat man whom throws grenades at you.
Then to the right of the fat guy, part of the plane will slide up to
show six missile launchers. They shoot missile launchers.
You will then be lead near the bottom of the plane near a side
propeller. Near that propeller will be holes which shoot missiles at
you. Dodge them and shoot the area where the holes are.
Stage 4:
You will fight a guy hanging on to a helicopter (if you're playing
two players before you get to this boss, then there will be two guys and
two helicopters). You can only damage the helicopter, and it shoots
missiles at you. Once the helicopter is destroyed, the guy will drop
down. He walks back and forth following you throwing grenades in groups
of three. Just dodge his grenades and shoot him, he's pretty easy to
kill.
Stage 5:
There will be five guys on the screen: two of them are guys in red
vests who just fire using regular machine guns, while the other three
also shoot regular machine guns, but they can jump around, are really
quick, and can pick up barrels and throw them at you. There might be
more guys if you're playing two players before you get to this boss.
Stage 6:
This boss starts out with enemies going on screen and attacking you.
There are two women dressed in blue tied to some wood pole at opposite
sides of the door of the building Dr. Muckly comes out of in his
wheelchair. He goes back and forth in his wheelchair shooting bombs out
of some pole in the back of his wheelchair, he just keeps on shooting,
you have to keep dodging, and you barely get any time to do anything.
After you beat him, the two women tied to the wood poles will break
free and fight you. You can prevent this by killing both of them while
they are tied up to the poles before beating Dr. Muckly in his wheel-
chair (actually, I think you can only kill one of them before beating
Dr. Muckly in his wheelchair, but it has to be while playing two
players). All the two women do is shoot you with their machine guns.
After you defeat them, you'll fight a big, red, robot. You cannot
continue past this point or join in, if you die, you die, and I haven't
been able to defeat this last part yet. But I do know it shoots a giant
missile that blows up and shoots other missiles and guns. Although like
I said, I haven't been able to defeat it yet, so don't ask me about
this one.

Part 8: Basic Strategies and Tips

To beat this game, you will need some strategy. You need to dodge a
lot, especially when under heavy fire. Such as the last boss, you will
need to run all the way to one direction, then dodge to the opposite
direction. then run all the way to the direction you dodged to, then
dodge in the opposite direction again. Shoot after you dodge, then run
and dodge again. Look around the screen to see if there is any gunfire
going your way, and dodge or shoot it (if you can, you can only shoot
grenades, though).
