The activities in combat and at leisure of a group of Australian regular soldier on a years tour of duty in Vietnam in the late 1960s forms the basis of Tom Jefferys The Odd Angry Shot.

In the tradition of Platoon and with an all-star cast headed by Graham Kennedy, John Hargreaves, Bryan Brown, John Jarrett and Graeme Blundell The Odd Angry Shot contains combat sequences that are reputedly among the best ever filmed.
