: I’ve watched ep 1.05 ‘Sitting Ducks’ a few
: times now but I think I keep missing
: something because I cannot seem to get my
: head around it.

: We know who the NVA informant was but I just
: don’t get why Tran (the Kit Carson scout)
: was leaving the patrol map in the supplies
: box, and by extent, felt the need to seem
: that he was not aware of what was going on
: with the NVA knowing patrol routes (for
: example, by not telling Goldman, and leading
: Anderson and the patrol straight it an
: ambush rather than taking the swamp route).
:
: I realise that being a Kit Carson scout, he
: would be killed by both the VC and NVA. I
: don’t think that he was a traitor to his new
: American allies. The episode seems to infer
: that he was being threatened by the NVA to
: provide the information and not reveal it to
: his US allies or he would be killed. Or was
: it a matter of religious influence?
:
: Does anyone have any different or actual
: idea about why he did what he did?
:
: Thanks in advance!
