They've Got to Kill Me!
10 pp · war

An American soldier crawls through enemy territory toward a Communist bunker, armed with a flamethrower and steely determination—knowing the Reds are just as desperate to stop him before he reaches his target. Caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, he battles fear, exhaustion, and relentless gunfire as he inches closer to completing a mission that matters far more than just survival. With his thoughts turning to home, his girl, and everything he's fighting for, he makes one final push to see the job through.

According to the Book
9 pp · war

During the closing days of World War Two, Lieutenant Nesbitt makes a split-second decision aboard the submarine Mallethead that haunts him for years—when Japanese planes attack and the skipper is hit on the bridge, Nesbitt orders the sub to dive, leaving his commanding officer behind. Though a naval board later exonerates him, his crew brands him yellow, and the question consumes him: was he thinking only of saving the ship, or was he a coward? When Korea flares up and Nesbitt takes command of the Mallethead once more, he finally gets his chance to face that judgment again—but this time, with his new crew aware of his past, the answer may come at an impossible cost.

R Is for Rotation
8 pp · war

Private Joe Waite is a combat infantryman stuck on the tiny island of Inch-Yu, far from the fighting in Korea, growing increasingly desperate to see real action. When he discovers that the monthly supply plane bound for Inch-Yu continues on to Kumwha—where the actual combat is happening—he hatches a plan to stow away with the help of his friend Shrimpton, who's rotating stateside. But his bid for the war won't go quite as he imagined.
