Synopsis:
Superman answers the pleas of many U.S. soldiers and goes to Vietnam. When Clark becomes a medic, Lois follows him as a nurse. He soon encounters a soldier named Johnny Morely who was captured and given a special herb. The drug turns him into an invulnerable giant under the control of vietnamese scientist, Dr. Han.

Morely begins attacking U.S. troops. Superman protects the men until the drug wears off. Morely returns to normal size and turns against the vietnamese. After the battle, Superman performs for the soldiers.
