Fire Team

(Aircel, 1990-1991)
™ and ©1990 Don Lomax

Cam Ky MacMurphy is half-Vietnamese, half-American, and feels as if he doesn’t belong to either race. His uncle, Nguyen Van Tan, raised him from birth and the two live in an area of town that is controlled by a skinhead gang called the “Future Shock.” These criminals cause the inhabitants of the neighborhood to live in fear by forcing them to pay “protection” money. When Nguyen refuses to pay, he and Cam are beaten to within an inch of their lives and their family’s store is burned to the ground. The police, for their part, don’t even bother to file a report.

Then hope appears in the form of a ghost from the past. When Nguyen was young, right after Cam was born, he worked with a U.S. Fire Team in the twilight days of the war in Viet Nam. The team was comprised of six honest and brave men who died while trying to evacuate women and children from a hostile area. Now the Fire Team has come back from the dead to save Nguyen and Cam.
