The cocksucker fell asleep. He let them walk right up on us and he don't do shit!
~ Junior framing Taylor for falling asleep on shift.

Junior is a supporting antagonist in Oliver Stone's 1986 Vietnam War film Platoon. Unlike Bunny and Sergeant Barnes, he is a genuine coward and a moron to the point where it even disgusts his comrades in-universe.

He was portrayed by Reggie Johnson.

Biography[]

When Taylor asks Junior to cover his shift to keep watch while he and the other soldiers sleep, he then falls asleep himself, thus getting Gardner killed and Taylor wounded as they get ambushed during the night by the NVA.

While everyone else believes Junior's lie that Taylor allowed the ambush to happen, Barnes doesn't believe him for one minute and threatens to "take an interest in seeing him suffer" while giving him a death glare if he does it again. During the infamous village razing scene, Junior and Bunny lead the gangrape of two underage girls.

Later on, he fakes jungle rot by spraying mosquito repellant on his feet in an attempt to abandon the war altogether, which Barnes (who threatens to put a centipede on his crotch and court-martial him if he does it again) sees through right away and even disgusts Bunny and O'Neil. During the film's climax, Bunny and Junior share a pithole until the latter freaks out and decides to run away in a failed attempt to save his own skin. As a result, Bunny gets shot in the head and Junior gets bayonetted to death by the NVA.
