The Axis Powers spread a wide net of mayhem, attacking Pearl Harbor (by the Germans yet!), Guam and Portland, Maine. Buddy's idea of building a wire net, carried below airplanes to foul up the invader's plane props, was quite successful. While defending the seas near Maine, Uncle Sam encountered the Spirit of John Paul Jones, which inspired Sam to use America's retired frigates to encircle the enemy in fire, even as enemy soldiers invaded Boston, Massachusetts.
