Unfortunately, the translator wasn't with him, nor was his best good enough. The Vietnam soldier, being on higher defense due to his injuries, grabs his gun and shoots Henry. He kills him in one swift movement. Henrys' partner hears the gunshot and rushes over to investigate. Once he sees the enemy, he pulls his gun out and shoots the scared, injured soldier. Henry turns his head weakly to witness the bullet go clean through the enemys' left eye. The last thing he sees is a fellow soldier bashing the others' face in with the back end of his gun.
