When Marco learns that another of the platoon's soldiers has been suffering the exact same nightmare, he starts looking into why this is happening. The backdrop with the old ladies changes back and forth between them and Chinese/Soviet intelligence officials. One of the ladies tells Sergeant Shaw to murder two of his platoon comrades. Years after the war, Marco, now back in the United States working as an intelligence officer, begins suffering a recurring nightmare in which the seated platoon members are surrounded by a group of sweet little old ladies who had been a part of their brainwashing. They are taken to Manchuria, and brainwashed into believing Shaw saved their lives in combat – for which Shaw is subsequently awarded the Medal of Honor. Major Bennett Marco, Sergeant Raymond Shaw, and the rest of their infantry platoon are captured by an elite Soviet commando unit during the Korean War in 1952.
