Rambo CharacterThe fictional character of John J. Rambo was born on July 6, 1947 in Phoenix, Arizona of Native-American/German descents. After high school, he joined the United States Army on July 1966. Rambo was deployed to South Vietnam in September 1966. He returned to the U.S. in 1967 and began training in the Special Forces at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. In late 1969, Rambo was re-deployed to Vietnam. In November 1971, Rambo was captured by North Vietnamese forces near the Chinese-Vietnamese border. At the POW camp, Rambo was tortured along with other American POWs. Rambo escaped captivity in May 1972, but was then re-deployed. Rambo was discharged on September 17, 1974. In his return to the U.S., Rambo discovered that many civilians hated returning soldiers from Vietnam.About eight years later, Rambo has difficulty adjusting to civilian life (presumably after losing his job managing motor vehicles) and wanders the country as a drifter. From this point on, he would go through a day that changed his life perhaps more than Vietnam did. Rambo finds out that a fellow member of his unit died from cancer due to Agent Orange exposure. Shortly after finding out about the loss of his friend, Rambo runs afoul of Will Teasle, the sheriff of a small Washington State mountain resort town called Hope. Teasle arrests Rambo for vagrancy and resisting arrest, and brings him back to the station, where he is beaten by police officers. During the beatings, Rambo has flashbacks to his time as a prisoner of war. Rambo assaults the officers and escapes from the police and heads into the mountains on a stolen motorcycle. A small band of deputies venture into the woods to capture Rambo. After Rambo incapacitates the deputies using guerrilla war tactics, Teasle calls in the National Guard. Rambo's former commanding officer, Colonel Sam Trautman warns the searchers that it will be dangerous to capture Rambo, due to his combat training and experience. When the National Guard unit finds Rambo holed up in a mine entrance, they fire a shoulder-launched M72 LAW (rocket-propelled grenade) at him. Unbeknownst to his pursuers, Rambo survives the explosion and cave-in. He crawls through tunnels in the mine and finds an exit near a main road. Rambo steals an M60 machine gun from the National Guardsmen and returns to Hope, where he destroys a gas station, telephone junction boxes, power lines, and a local store. Rambo finds Teasle on the roof of the police station. As Rambo moves towards Teasle to kill him, Colonel Trautman tells him that his mini-war is over. Rambo breaks down sobbing and Trautman convinces Rambo to turn himself in. |
