Why Mike went back for Nick

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 2009)

Before they all went over to Vietnam Mike made a promise to Nick that he wouldn't leave him alone over there. Mike tried his hardest to keep his promise but wasn't successful. He lost Nick over the river so he could save Stevie. It was easy to tell that Mike was very regretful over what happened. While he was still in Vietnam he happened to come across Nick again over Russian Roulette again. Nick didn't notice Mike when he was running after him, and soon after Mike was sent home and Nick went AWOL. Mike didn't feel right being home without Nick and not knowing what happened to Stevie. Mike finally found Stevie and found out that Nick had been sending money over to him. Mike went back to Vietnam to fulfill his promise, to not leave Nick in Vietnam. He knew right where to go to find him, but when Mike found Nick he was very different, like something had gotten into his brain and the only thing he knew was Russian Roulette. Mike tried to talk sense into Nick and right as it seemed like he was getting through to him Nick pulled the trigger for the last time. Mike finally brought him home, he may not have come back whole, but Mike did what he intended. He fulfilled his promise to Nick and brought him back.
