Patrullserien #10/1987

In 1939, Alan Durbam and Roy Hudson’s friendship shatters when a botched jewel heist leaves Roy wounded and imprisoned, vowing revenge. Years later, during a brutal chindit campaign in Burma, the two men are thrown together again at Fort Oda-Oba—forced to survive the war’s horrors before settling their old score.

In the spring of 1943, as Japanese forces invade the Philippines, the British merchant captain Rip Bates faces a turning point: torn between saving his ship and his cargo or joining the fight for freedom. With the help of local resistance fighters Andres and Maria Mendez, he begins to see that survival isn’t just about self-preservation—it’s about standing up for something greater. The story unfolds across the rugged coastlines and hidden grottos of Malinta, where courage is tested and choices carry weight.
