He became Rocky, the Philadelphia loser who beats up the heavyweight champion of the world. Now Stallone's pectorals and deltoids are in service again as Rambo. The name sounds like a good ole boy's rendering of Rimbaud. Rambo is a veteran who single-handed accomplishes what the U.S. Army and Marines never could do. He defeats Viet Nam.
