Domestic box office grosses for the picture totaled $10,499,694. Pvt. Joe Armstrong (Michael Dudikoff), an orphaned drifter with little respect for much other than martial arts, finds himself on an American Army base in the Philippines after a judge gives him a choice of enlistment or prison. On one of his first missions driving a convoy, his platoon is attacked by a group of rebels who try to steal the weapons the platoon is transporting and try to kidnap Patricia (Judie Aronson), the base colonel's daughter, who happens to be along for the ride. Joe rescues Patricia and defeats all the rebels, but the ninjas suddenly arrive and kill everyone in the platoon. Joe escapes with Patricia and gets her safely back to the base, but everyone else in the platoon is killed. When he arrives back on base, Joe is yelled at by the Col. William Hickock (Guich Koock) and Master Sergeant Rinaldo (John LaMotta) for disobeying a direct order. LESS
