What Is Cobra Mission About?

The premise of Cobra Mission without spoilers.

Ten years after the Vietnam War, four former Marines—Roger, whose daughter just married; unemployed James; Mark, who quit his Arizona roadside tavern job; and Richard, recently released from a mental hospital—return to Southeast Asia to investigate reports that American POWs are still being held. In the jungle they find the prisoners and uncover a secret U.S. government plot to conceal the truth.
