An Uncle Sam story by Al Gabriele depicts the patriotic hero confronting Nazi forces storming the walls of Fort Chalons, a hidden British stronghold, while thousands of Nazi boats and vessels attempt to take control of British waters and shipping. As the Nazi legions attack in an unstoppable wave, Uncle Sam rallies the British forces to defend the fort against the assault. A separate comedic story follows characters dealing with cigars, sandwiches, root beer, and holiday celebrations as they navigate humorous domestic situations involving heated fans and Santa Claus impersonations.
