John Rambo is seen walking up to friend Delmar Barry's lakefront homestead in Washington State, having gotten the address from Barry after the war. At this time, the year is 1982. Rambo has been down-on-his-luck recently, unable to hold down a job and resorting to sleeping in the woods often. Life has been quite difficult to Rambo, partictularly because the country isn't exactly welcoming to returning Vietnam veterans, who they blamed for the failed war. Rambo decides to contact Barry so he may find a new lease on life and find somebody he knows so he can muddle through his troubled life. Rambo hitchhikes to the homestead and walks down a gravel road.

  • John Rambo is seen walking up to friend Delmar Barry's lakefront homestead in Washington State, having gotten the address from Barry after the war. At this time, the year is 1982. Rambo has been down-on-his-luck recently, unable to hold down a job and resorting to sleeping in the woods often. Life has been quite difficult to Rambo, partictularly because the country isn't exactly welcoming to returning Vietnam veterans, who they blamed for the failed war. Rambo decides to contact Barry so he may find a new lease on life and find somebody he knows so he can muddle through his troubled life. Rambo hitchhikes to the homestead and walks down a gravel road. He eventually comes across a shimmering lake and a house with children playing outside. Rambo smiles, hopeful for the future and excited to see his only surviving friend, before rushing to get to the homefront. He encounters a middle-aged woman whom he asks if Barry still lives here. She replies that he does, and a giddy Rambo begins showing her the only picture he has from his war days, telling her funny stories. But when Rambo inquires when he will be back, she informs him that Delmar died from cancer due to prolonged Agent Orange exposure from back in the war. Rambo is shocked by this and instantly loses all hope, as he now realizes that he is the sole surviving member of his unit. He apologizes for her loss and gives her the picture before heading off to an uncertain future.
