The issue contains two stories. "Submarine Attack" depicts two Allied frosmen supervising the delivery of three specially-built bombs to an airfield, then dropping them in deep water near the harbor entrance before taking the submarine over after the bombing run. "The One Man Fleet" is a text story about Henry Wilson, a retired fisherman who becomes obsessed with hunting down the German U-102 submarine that killed his son George during World War II, leading him to modify his small fishing boat with unconventional weapons in hopes of sinking the enemy craft. The comic also features Lieutenant Joe Kettridge assigned to anti-submarine duty on a modified ship, discovering an unusual civilian tanker armed with pine logs that proves effective against torpedo attacks.

Silent Enemy
5 pp · War

Two U.S. Navy frogmen, Lt. Beeson and Sp. 1/C Pins Belardi, are tasked with delivering specially engineered underwater bombs to sabotage the heavily fortified German submarine pens at Kiel—a target no planes or conventional forces can breach. When Belardi's innovative plan gets the green light, the pair must navigate enemy waters and guide their cargo into the heart of the Nazi base, all while Belardi wrestles with a fear that's haunted him since before he could even swim. It's a tense race against discovery and the clock in this 1958 war tale from *Submarine Attack*.

Deep and Deadly
5 pp · War

The atomic-powered USS Nautilus proves her revolutionary capabilities during her first shakedown cruise, but when an unidentified submarine appears off the Atlantic coast, the Navy's newest weapon gets her chance to show what she's truly built for. As the Nautilus tracks the mysterious intruder through depths and across the surface, her commander must decide how far to push the boundaries of peace to protect American shores. It's a tense cat-and-mouse game that showcases the raw power of atomic submarine warfare in this 1958 Cold War thriller.

The Japanese Baka Bomb
5 pp · War

When Japan's desperate Baka bomb campaign threatens the Okinawa invasion fleet in 1945, the destroyer Perkins and her anti-aircraft gunners—led by the impatient Captain Edgar L. "Shorty" Egstrom—take position as the vanguard against rocket-powered missiles screaming toward vulnerable transport ships. As wave after wave of these one-ton warheads and their doomed kamikaze pilots close in, the crew must race against the clock to destroy each target before impact, while the Navy's improvised picket-line defense proves the only answer to Japan's final, terrible weapon.
