Missing in Action is a 1984 action B-movie directed by Joseph Zito and starring Chuck Norris. It is set in the context of the Vietnam War POW/MIA issue. Colonel Braddock, who escaped a Vietnamese prisoner of war camp 10 years earlier, returns to Vietnam to find American soldiers listed as missing in action during the Vietnam War. The film was followed by a prequel, Missing in Action 2: The Beginning (1985), and a sequel, Braddock: Missing in Action III (1988).
The concept for the film originated from a story treatment, written by James Cameron in 1983, for the film Rambo: First Blood Part II that was floating around Hollywood at the time. This explains the similar plotlines between Rambo and MIA. Representatives from Cannon Group claimed to have been "inspired" by Cameron's script and subsequently produced and released the first two Missing in Action films two months before the release of Rambo, in order to avoid copyright violation lawsuits.
Missing in Action 2 was filmed back to back with Missing in Action, and was actually set to be released first before the producers changed their minds.

Chuck Norris - Missing in Action (1984) - Action, Adventure, Drama
(Thomas)
And after all this time why must you be
Missing in action, missing in action?
And after all these years why must you be
Missing in action, missing in action?
Replacements were sent, the battle went on,
There were people, did not even notice you'd gone
Oh, but I did, oh, but I did.
And after all this time why must you be
Missing in action, missing in action?
And after all these years why must you be
Missing in action, missing in action?
I know there were times, the sun never shone
And I know there were times I thought we had won
Oh well I did, I'll tell you I did.
Missing in action, missing in action
Missing in action, missing in action
Were there too many times, I had my way?
Were there too many times, you had your say?
You said we'd be together when the siren sounds
But I look for you, you're nowhere to be found
And nobody's seen you in ages...
And after all this time why must you be
Missing in action, missing in action?
And after all these years why must you be
