☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeBattlefield Action #19 is a war anthology containing at least three stories. "Spitfire Ace" follows Captain Ike Wallace, a Royal Air Force pilot ordered to observe American Lend-Lease operations in 1940 while remaining neutral, who becomes entangled with German aircraft and a suspicious wing commander. "The General Told Them—Nuts!" depicts the Battle of the Bulge on December 16, 1944, when General von Runstedt's twenty divisions attack, and American soldiers under General McAuliffe's command mount a desperate defensive stand. "Salvo!" features a Marine captain with a shattered leg who orders his men to attack enemy positions on the beach, sacrificing himself to give his unit a chance to survive.
During the Battle of the Bulge, S/Sgt. Elwin Lockburn and the 101st Airborne find themselves surrounded at Bastogne as Von Runstedt's German divisions hammer the thin American lines with tanks and artillery. When a German officer arrives under a flag of truce demanding surrender, General Macauliffe delivers a response that electrifies the trapped soldiers and stiffens their resolve to hold their ground against overwhelming odds.
