Going Back (2001)

Going Back is a 2001 made for TV movie starring Casper Van Dien as Capt. Ramsey, the former Marine C.O of Echo Company. Years after the war, Ramsey and several of his former Marines return to Vietnam to film a TV documentary about their reunion, but tensions are high, as the men of E Company blame Ramsey for a friendly fire incident that resulted in the deaths of several Marines. As the men revisit old battlefields, the events leading up to the day in question are shown in a series of flashbacks. In the United States, the film was released on DVD under the title Under Heavy Fire.
