A military patrol led by Corporal Sam Keats becomes trapped behind enemy lines after being ambushed by guerrilla fighters, with Sam knocked unconscious during a savage rescue attempt by his comrades. The soldiers locate an enemy cave hideout where they believe at least a hundred Red forces are positioned, and after making contact with a local villager who knows the terrain, they plan an assault on the numerically superior enemy position. The patrol attempts to overcome the odds through tactical advantage, ultimately launching their attack on the fortified cave despite being outnumbered four to one.

Contains 4 stories
Devil Raiders
9 pp · War

These daring soldiers—the "Truck-Busters"—slip behind enemy lines night after night to sabotage the Communist supply convoys feeding the brutal barrage on Allied positions, but when they're tipped off to a massive ammunition truck run assembling in the Korean mountains, their hunt for a record score leads them straight into a deadly Red trap. With the odds stacked against them and time running out, these unsung raiders must find a way to survive the day trapped deep in hostile territory. The thrilling true account of how a handful of war-weary GIs became the phantom menace the enemy feared most.

Get That Tank
6 pp · War

A lone Soviet T-34 tank prowls the frozen Korean hills around the Myongu River, harassing a UN outpost after being separated from its unit—and Lieutenant Saunders' tank-killer team finds itself pinned down without anti-tank weapons or radio support. When the brutal cold and the tank's relentless firepower keep the GIs trapped, Murphy and Chavez cook up an improvised plan to turn the terrain itself into a weapon.

Bombing of Kaewan
7 pp · War

When the Psychological Warfare Branch drops 30,000 leaflets warning the Red village of Kaewan of an imminent bombing raid, Corporal Sam Keats faces an agonizing conflict: his best friend Tom Buckner is among the American prisoners the enemy has threatened to execute if the bombers come. Racing against dawn and a devastating air strike, Keats must find a way to rescue his comrades from behind enemy lines before the B-29s reduce the village to rubble. A Korean War tale that pits duty against loyalty in the heat of combat.

Guerilla Killers
6 pp · War

Lieutenant Harris's anti-guerilla platoon races to the Korean village of Kyanju after a brutal raid by Colonel Nim's forces, determined to hunt down the enemy before they slip back into the mountains. When a war correspondent named Sam Case joins the squad, he discovers firsthand why these men have earned a fearsome reputation—and finds himself face-to-face with impossible odds when they corner the guerillas in a heavily fortified cave. It's a story of grit, sacrifice, and the cost of war in the trackless Korean terrain.
