Contains 4 stories
They All Came Back
6 pp · war

Sergeant Foxy Webb leads his patrol deep into enemy territory during the Korean War to scout Communist positions, but when one of his men goes missing, he must fight his way back through overwhelming odds to bring everyone home. With enemy forces closing in and a clever Soviet adviser in the mix, Webb uses every trick in his arsenal—smoke, strategy, and help from the air—to complete his mission. It's a tense night-and-day battle that proves why Webb never takes unnecessary chances, and why his men trust him completely.

Spotty
7 pp · war

A young Marine finds his stray dog Spotty unexpectedly following him into combat on the Philippines, where the eager pup becomes both a liability and an unlikely asset in the brutal fighting against Japanese patrols. When Spotty and a fellow Marine named Dutch Mueller go missing during a ridge skirmish, the narrator must navigate enemy territory to find his wounded friend—guided by the instincts of the very dog he once feared would give away his position. This 1965 war story proves that even in the chaos of battle, loyalty runs deeper than training.

The Ghost of Guam
7 pp · war

When his Corsair is shot down over the Pacific in 1944, Lt. Walt Diskin finds himself stranded on Guam—an island bristling with Japanese fortifications and thousands of enemy troops. Rescued by native islanders who despise the occupation, Diskin begins a one-man sabotage campaign, becoming a phantom figure in the hills as he maps defenses and strikes at ammunition dumps and gun emplacements under cover of darkness. When the American fleet finally arrives to bombard the island and the Marines storm the beaches, Diskin's guerrilla work from the shadows may be the difference between victory and catastrophe.

The Mortar Man
5 pp · war

Corporal Jiggs Rollins is the mortar man of Dog Company's heavy weapons platoon, a skilled gunner who can drop shells with deadly precision on Japanese targets—but he's grown restless with the job and yearns for more direct action. When Colonel Loomis discovers Rollins sneaking off to hunt snipers with a rifle, he puts the mortar man's specialty to the ultimate test: using indirect fire to strike a heavily fortified Japanese communications center atop a hill, where a three-foot opening in the reinforced concrete might just be the key to avoiding a costly frontal assault. It's a shot that takes nerve, skill, and a whole lot of ammunition.
