I was on the side of a mountain on a road. I knew that in the dream I was in Vietnam. I was carrying an M-16. I tried to shoot at enemy soldiers but my rifle turned out to be just an airsoft gun. The enemies chased after me so I picked up a sharpened 2x4 and started killing them. Towards the end of the dream I was in the back of a van driving down the mountain and the last enemy was chasing me in a car. I threw the 2x4 and it went through the windshield and skewered him. Then I woke up. |
