Major Vic Storm leads his tank unit on a high-stakes mission to knock out hidden enemy gun positions dug into the frozen hills around Sinjon during the Korean War—positions that have already devastated previous assault waves. With only eight hours to prove his unconventional approach, Storm and his men outfit their tank with reinforced, spiked treads for the treacherous icy slopes, then must navigate the brutal climb to scout the enemy's camouflaged defenses and call in the coordinated air and sea strike. It's a desperate gamble against a well-prepared foe in one of war's most unforgiving landscapes.

Captain Joe Branning arrives to whip Company D into shape for the Cold War, convinced that the men are complacent about the real danger lurking across the border in Soviet-occupied Austria—but his unit sees him as an overbearing disciplinarian until a midnight patrol uncovers something far more sinister than routine occupation duty. When mysterious raids dressed in American uniforms begin terrorizing the border towns, Branning and his men must piece together a cunning Soviet deception and decide what price defending the truth will cost them.
