Title: Paradise Lost Plot: Bravo Company is on a jungle patrol when they stumble upon a recent trail leading straight to a trap set by Viet Cong soldiers. Outnumbered and in a precarious situation, their luck changes when they are unexpectedly aided by a group of Montagnards. Anderson, placing his trust in them, leads his team back to their village, where they encounter Kithem, a former GI who now serves as their translator.

Ignoring Kithem's warnings about the repercussions of their involvement, Goldman insists on reinforcing the village against the VC, ultimately drawing unwanted attention from ARVN and NVA forces, just as Kithem predicted.
