In "The Nazis Who Rose from the Dead," pilot Dunn stumbles upon a terrifying new threat: Nazi soldiers who regenerate after being shot, their resurrection triggered by radio signals.

The Phantom Clipper and her captain Tiger Shark investigate a string of mysterious attacks on merchant vessels, only to discover that the legendary pirate Henry Morgan has returned—commanding what appears to be a ghostly ship called the Jolly Roger. As Tiger rallies frightened sailors and pursues the mysterious vessel across dangerous waters, he uncovers a sinister secret that will test the Phantom Clipper's mettle in an unexpected way.
A P.T. boat commanded by Lieutenant Dave Owens is tasked with a daring midnight rescue: slip into the Japanese-held port of Mulami, pick up an American espionage agent, and get out alive. When discovery forces a desperate run through enemy waters, Owens and his crew must fight their way past a Japanese task force blocking the harbor mouth—armed with nothing but speed, nerve, and their torpedo tubes. Badly damaged but undefeated, the tiny torpedo boat races against time and a flooding hull to bring both the agent and her exhausted crew home.
Members of the Civil Air Patrol spot a U-boat surfacing off the coast and spring into action, radioing its position back to base while keeping the enemy vessel in sight.

These lightly-armed fliers prove themselves unsung heroes in the fight against enemy submarines prowling American waters.
