The correct answer is:

The narrator is haunted by the experience of killing another man.

William Timothy O'Brien is an American writer, best known for the book The Things They Carried. In this collection of connected semi-autobiographical stories, O'Brien recounts his experiences in the Vietnam War. In the story "Ambush", the narrator´s trauma caused by the experience of killing another man is revealed to the reader through the frame-story structure.
