**SITUATION**  
Walter Kurtz was one of the most outstanding officers this country has ever produced. He was brilliant. He was outstanding in every way, and he was a good man too. A humanitarian man.

Now he's crossed over to Tinian Island with this Chamorro army of his, that worship the man like a god, and follow his every order however ridiculous.

Kurtz had ordered the execution of some Marianas intelligence agents. Men he believed were double agents. So he took matters into his own hands.
