An American cruiser is lured into a Japanese trap at Salvo Strait, where the ship comes under heavy attack with its engine room and fire control systems damaged. Yeoman 2nd Class Bannock and his group must climb a hill to repair the ship's systems and restore power, while Captain Devore coordinates the defense against enemy ships approaching at 16,000 yards. The crew works desperately to get the engines running and escape before the Japanese can finish them off in the narrow strait.

80 Hours Of Frozen Hell
9 pp · War

A green ensign who dreamed of the Navy finds himself commanding an armed guard crew aboard a merchant freighter bound for Murmansk on one of World War II's deadliest convoy runs. As the S.S. Martin Blair and her sister ships push through waters stalked by German U-boats and the Luftwaffe, Ensign Lincoln Maher must prove to the skeptical merchant sailors—and to himself—that inexperienced Navy gunners can hold their own when the enemy attacks. The journey ahead will test everything he and his men have learned, in the frozen hell of the North Atlantic.

You Can Become A Naval Officer

Expendable Man
5 pp · War

It's May 1951 off the North Korean coast, and Lt. Comdr. Bill Rotko leads the USS Horgan on a mercy mission to rescue American survivors—only to discover the harbor is a deadly trap bristling with enemy searchlights and guns. When Yeoman 2nd Class Bannock volunteers for the beach party to reach the stranded men, he'll have to draw on every ounce of courage to keep the rescue alive under withering Communist fire.

Defeat At Savo Strait
8 pp · War

Captain Kinsey Quinn's pride gets the better of him when he pursues a Japanese cruiser into Savo Strait, only to find himself outgunned by enemy warships and forced to beach his vessel on a shallow atoll. With his ship damaged and an enemy reconnaissance plane circling overhead, Quinn must orchestrate daring repairs and clever deception to get the Bristol seaworthy again before the Japanese close in. It's a taut tale of seamanship under pressure, where quick thinking and a crew's ingenuity become weapons just as vital as guns and torpedoes.
