"Manchurian Mission," featuring Captain Anderson, follows a U.S. paratrooper who is sent to Manchuria to gather proof of Chinese communist forces imprisoning captured Allied soldiers across the Korean border in violation of international law. After parachuting into enemy territory, the paratrooper encounters a South Korean guerrilla force and works with them to locate the imprisoned soldiers while evading enemy troops. The story involves truce negotiations at Panmunjom and the discovery of a traitor among the Korean forces before the paratrooper escapes with vital intelligence about the enemy's movements.

Silent Death!
6 pp · War

Captain Jim Hale and his paratroopers are scrambled to investigate a mysteriously silent South Korean position on the front lines, only to discover an entire outfit dead with barely a wound among them. When the medics confirm the enemy is deploying germ warfare, Hale's squad must locate and destroy the underground enemy laboratory producing the biological weapon—armed with immunizations and explosives, they face a desperate race against time to stop a terrifying new threat. It's a tense combat mission where stealth, teamwork, and nerve become as vital as firepower.

Manchurian Mission!
6 pp · War
Captain Anderson

Captain Anderson leads a daring paratrooper raid deep into Manchuria to gather photographic proof and witnesses that will expose enemy prison camps hidden on neutral Chinese territory—a mission complicated when the team discovers a traitor in their midst. With quick thinking and captured enemy uniforms, Anderson and his men infiltrate the very prison they came to investigate, facing unexpected dangers at every turn. This is a high-stakes espionage operation where one wrong move could mean the difference between triumph and disaster.

The Screaming Eagles!
6 pp

A U.S. paratrooper drops into North Korea on a critical mission, only to discover his orders have been compromised by enemy infiltrators posing as allied guerillas. When the kidnap operation meant to intercept a train carrying a Red Chinese general goes sideways, the Screaming Eagles are called in to finish the job themselves—parachuting directly onto a moving train in a desperate race against enemy jets and time. With battle plans and a general in the balance, these paratroopers will have to pull off an audacious rescue that could shift the entire course of the conflict.
