Synopsis/Details
Major Anderson has a platoon of soldiers injected with hallucinogenic drugs, as an experiment, to turn them
into "killing machines", but the soldiers start shooting at each other.
They are told there is an enemy in the combat zone, and are split up into five units, to locate and kill an
unspecified enemy. This results in friendly fire, as the soldiers gradually realise they have killed their
own men.
Only one man, Hayes, survives the mission, and returns to confront Major Anderson, whom he calls, "Major Mad".
