Doldrums

James Hunter, an aging Vietnam veteran in his 70s, humdrum existence, is haunted by memory decades after the war. Hunter's dream opens a world of vivid memory - Captain Hunter in Viet Nam in 1972, who is badly wounded and found by a Viet Cong medic, Lan. The act of kindness from Lan saves Hunter, but in return, a bullet from his battle buddy kills Lan. He relives the day Lan died over and over again, drowning himself in grief and pain. The story shifts when his battle buddy's ghost visits him.
