Battle Stories #4

During the Korean War, a U.N. foot soldier volunteers for a dangerous solo mission: infiltrate enemy territory along the Simjin River, locate a Communist mine arsenal, and plant special thermane torches to mark the target for Allied bombers. Racing against a one-week deadline and dodging Red patrols at every turn, he must survive long enough to complete his assignment and signal the air strike.

When a sniper's ricochet downs their lieutenant during a desperate rear-guard action in Korea, Sergeant Huntoon must suddenly lead a handful of men holding a mountain pass against waves of Chinese Communist forces intent on reaching a vulnerable column of wounded. Using quick thinking and whatever resources he can muster—from makeshift decoys to precisely timed mortar fire—Huntoon applies the tactical lesson his fallen commander drilled into him: common sense. As the enemy closes in and time runs out, this small band of soldiers must hold the line long enough for the evacuation to reach safety.

Sergeant Steele and his tank crew are called to support Fox Company against Communist forces in a desperate firefight, but what starts as a straightforward mission becomes a deadly trap when a second enemy tank reveals itself. With quick thinking and the latest improvements to his M-46's turret cannon, Steele must outmaneuver a pair of Red tanks to turn the tide and secure the position for his allies.
