One More Battle
7 pp · war

Marine Captain Matthew Proctor is a jet pilot running on fumes—literally and figuratively—when fatigue and frayed nerves send his F9F fighter down over North Korea near Porkchop Hill. Bailing out into brutal winter conditions, he finds himself in a foxhole with a rifle platoon under heavy Communist assault, where his combat instincts suddenly snap back into focus. When the platoon commander falls, Proctor takes charge and leads a desperate counterattack against overwhelming odds, proving that a Marine pilot grounded is still a Marine.

Crack-Up
5 pp · war

Captain "Big Jake" Gordon has earned his reputation as a fearless Marine leader through brutal island campaigns at Tarawa and the Marshalls, but when he refuses reassignment to stateside training duty and insists on staying with his company through the savage fighting at Saipan in 1944, his relentless courage finally catches up with him. As Baker Company faces overwhelming enemy fire and mounting casualties, Big Jake launches a one-man assault on entrenched Japanese positions—machine guns, mortars, and all—refusing to back down even as his wounds pile up. When the medics finally bring him down, the men he's saved know they've witnessed something extraordinary, even if Big Jake himself won't accept that his fight is over.

Colonel Mutt
7 pp · war

Cpl. Joseph Edward Smith and his scrappy mongrel companion, Colonel Mutt, form an unbreakable bond during the brutal Korean War—a friendship that transforms an undisciplined stray into a fearless combat asset with an uncanny instinct for danger. As the dog earns a fearsome reputation among enemy forces and becomes invaluable to Baker Company's patrols and outpost defense, Smith must navigate both military regulations against pets and the fog of war itself. When the moment comes for recognition, circumstances force Smith to accept the credit for courage that belongs to them both.

Section Leader
6 pp · war

Captain Harold Jackson leads a fighter section of F4U Corsairs on dangerous missions throughout the Southwest Pacific in 1943, escorting bombers and strafing Japanese positions in a relentless campaign where casualties mount daily. When a coast-watcher tips off Jackson's flight to enemy barges hidden in a lagoon, the captain must lead a low-level strafing run against heavy anti-aircraft fire—a decision that will test his leadership and his nerve when one of his pilots goes down. This gripping war story captures the fierce dedication of carrier pilots who flew every mission knowing some wouldn't come home.
