One Man's War (1992)

Pete jerked up, hit his head on the hood of the jeep and cursed. He was working with a marine corporal, repairing one of the motor pool jeeps. If he could fix it, he could have it at his personal disposal because the gunny sergeant had already written off the cantankerous vehicle to the scrap heap.

“Ouch, dammit.” He rubbed his scalp as he saw his gunner, Lance Corporal Ran...dy York, galloping toward him, waving his arms above his head.
Running up to Pete, the gunner was sobbing for breath. “Cap’n, you gotta come quick! Major Ramsey’s alerting the whole squadron. Miss Villard’s plantation is under attack!”
