Why does Mike go back to Vietnam to find Nike? Be specific with this one and use examples.
Mike goes back to Vietnam to save Nicky for many reasons. One reason is they are best friends. Mike cannot live with himself knowing that Nicky is still back in Vietnam risking his life by playing high stakes Russian roulette. Mike knows that Nicky is playing Russian roulette because of the great sums of money he receives in the mail from Vietnam. Mike uses this money to travel to Vietnam and bribe people to find his friend. Before they left for Vietnam at the wedding Mike and Nicky made a pact to make sure they didn't get left behind. They agreed no matter what happened that they would not leave the other one in Vietnam. Mike isn't the type of person to break his promises, especially his best friend Nicky. Mike was distraught and disturbed by the fact that Nicky was still back in Nam. He couldn't live with himself knowing that Nicky was still there and sending money home. Also when they were in the prison camp Mike motivated Nicky to take the risk of using three bullets and motivated him to pull the trigger. Mike knew he wasn't going to die in a Vietnamese prison and wasn't going to let his friends die either. Also another reason why Mike went back is because he knew how much Nicky loved the trees in the mountains when they went deer hunting and couldn't let his friend die in that way.
