Contains 4 stories
Cousin Rudolf
8 pp · war

A quartermaster driver with German heritage struggles with his conscience while serving in Europe during World War II, haunted by memories of his cousin Rudolf back in Germany and torn between his duty to his adopted country and his lingering affection for the land of his birth. When combat puts him in impossible situations—including a dangerous accusation from a fellow soldier—he must confront whether loyalty to America means abandoning everything his father fled Germany to escape. Through flashbacks to pre-war visits and his own conflicted journey from Italy to France to Germany itself, "Cousin Rudolf" explores the anguish of a young man caught between two worlds.

Not A Fighting Man
4 pp · war

Cpl. Tony Hacker arrives in Vietnam as a military advisor under strict orders not to engage the enemy—a frustrating position when he watches the Viet-Cong attack the very soldiers he's trained. Bound by regulation while witnessing casualties around him, Hacker finds his patience tested in ways that force him to reckon with what duty really means on the ground.

2 Against 1000!
5 pp · war

When the U.S. Army pulls back from a West German supply depot amid a border dispute, Cpl. Shartek and Pfc. Riley are left as the only two guards protecting a fortune in military hardware—until Soviet forces move in with overwhelming numbers. The two soldiers must rely on quick thinking and the latest weapons at hand to hold the line against impossible odds.

Overtime Soldier
8 pp · war

A veteran supply officer tired of getting passed over for promotion, Major George C. Reardon refuses to play politics anymore—and throws himself into his work with reckless determination, personally delivering ammunition and supplies to troops pinned down in combat. When a general's impossible request for hard-to-find weapons lands on his desk, Reardon improvises a daring swap with the Australians, then leads his men on a dangerous run to the front lines with hot food and dry gear for soldiers in frozen foxholes. His men would follow him anywhere, and when the shooting starts, the old man proves he's got more fight left in him than anyone expected.
