Operation Knuckles

Private Joe Yank and Sergeant Mike McGurk—a pair of brawling GIs who'd rather fight each other than the enemy—are assigned to capture an enemy soldier for interrogation in Korea. When they grudgingly agree to work together, each secretly plans to outdo the other and claim glory, leading to a chaotic mission where their rivalry nearly gets them killed before they're forced to cooperate. By the time their commanding officer arrives to commend their "teamwork," the truce is already crumbling—and the real battle between them resumes the moment they're alone.

Flying High!

PFC Pinhead Perkins is yanked away from a chance to see his favorite movie star when Sergeant Grunkle orders him to pick up a visiting South American ambassador—but when Pinhead accidentally starts up a helicopter during what he thought was just a casual tour, he finds himself piloting an aircraft he's never flown before with an ambassador riding shotgun. What began as a frustrated soldier's worst day takes a wild, careening turn through the skies above the base.
