The game starts in January 1967 in Saigon South Vietnam. A CH-47 Chinook containing Caleb "Cal" Walker the game's protagonist and other G.I.s lands at Tan Son Nhut Air Base in southern Saigon. Walker along with his squad mate Private "Psycho" Kowalski are chosen by Colonel Salter the CO to participate in an air assault on a Viet Cong encampment within Kon Tum province. Walker and Kowalski are put under the command of Lieutenant O'Brien along with another G.I. nicknamed "Short Timer". As Caleb and his squad proceed through the area a friendly fire incident involving flawed mortar coordinates forces another G.I. named Tompkins to join the squad.
