☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains at least two stories. "Mine Sweeper!" follows Captain Joe Thomas commanding a minesweeper through submarine-infested waters to clear a minefield, though he harbors resentment at commanding what he considers an unglamorous vessel rather than a destroyer. "Night Shift!" depicts a nighttime amphibious assault on Guadalcanal where Japanese reinforcements arrive by sea under cover of darkness, resulting in combat between naval and ground forces as torpedoes strike the beach.
In the Pacific Theater of World War II, Marines, sailors, and aviators confront the harsh reality of war as they battle across a string of island names—Guadalcanal, Saipan, Tarawa—each one a site of sacrifice and struggle. Through the eyes of Marine Private Ted Coe, Seaman First Class Tom Winston, and Lt. Bill Edwards, the story reveals how these distant locations become etched in memory, carrying the weight of lives lost and battles won.
A small PT boat crew, known as the Night Shift, patrols the waters near Guadalcanal, hunting enemy supply barges under cover of darkness. As they intercept and destroy a convoy, they face new challenges—armored barges, jungle ambushes, and looming air threats—testing their skill and resolve in a relentless war of shadows.
