Season 3 of Tour of Duty premiered on September 23, 1989
The courageous soldiers of Bravo Company return for more extraordinary adventures in the third and final season of the groundbreaking Vietnam series Tour Of Duty. Joining the regular cast for the final season are John Dye (TV's "Touched By An Angel") and Kyle Chandler (TV's "Early Edition"). Special multi-episode guest stars include Lee Majors (TV's "The Six Million Dollar Man"), Carl Weathers (Rocky) and Greg Germann (TV's "Ally McBeal"). The men face their toughest challenges yet when their platoon (now called Team Viking) is transferred to Camp Barnett to become part of a Special Ops unit. This season delivers extreme combat action and intense human drama focusing on issues unique to the Vietnam era: the devastating effects of chemical warfare, the massacre of Vietnamese civilians, the growing problem of heroin addiction, and the difficulties the soldiers faced returning home to a country bitterly divided by war. The powerful third season, collected on this five-disc, 21-episode set, is a fitting finale to one of the greatest war dramas ever.
