"Air-Sea Rescue!" follows the dedicated efforts of Navy personnel and ships working to locate and retrieve downed pilots, with Captain Parsons investigating discrepancies in rescue operations and discovering issues with the way rescues are being conducted.
A young submariner reports for duty aboard the newly commissioned U.S.S. Warhead and must learn the dangerous art of submarine warfare from the ground up. As he trains with his crew and takes the Warhead into combat against Japanese forces, he grows to love the vessel as more than just a ship—until new orders tear him away to command another sub. When he's assigned to coordinate a patrol with his old home, what he discovers in that fateful rendezvous will haunt him forever.
An English captain crosses three thousand miles convinced of British naval supremacy, only to encounter American sailors whose unwavering belief in freedom shakes his certainties to the core. When he finally understands what drives these colonials to fight against impossible odds, he faces a choice that will test whether conviction transcends loyalty. This tale of the Revolutionary War explores what it truly means to stand for something greater than yourself.
Captain Larry Parsons commands an air-sea rescue launch tasked with picking up a downed pilot, but when a skeptical Commander boards the ship to investigate why Parsons's rescue record lags behind his peers, the mission becomes far more complicated than a simple retrieval. As enemy fire, gunboats, and a minefield stand between them and their objective, Parsons reveals why his rescue numbers are low—he's using every opportunity to gather intelligence, engage the enemy, and strike at their installations. The Commander comes to understand that Parsons fights a different kind of war, one where the rescue itself is just part of a larger tactical mission.
