rambo sees the huey coming in on a high arcing trajectory and knows he's in trouble. dragging co, he dives under a section of wall which has collapsed like a lean-to.
the effect on the ground is unbelievable. trees are blown to kindling. the foliage is pulverized, and blown upward like mist.
rambo cradles co, whose blouse is drenched with blood. it runs over his hands as he holds her helplessly.
very close on rambo, rocking gently.
rambo lays co with infinite gentleness in the lap of the stone buddha. in the lap is one slightly cupped hand, palm upward, stripped of foliage by the minigun. co lies in the palm, barely filling it.
