☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA U.N. Marine squadron racing back from enemy territory in Korea faces a new threat from the north and must act quickly to complete a critical mission. Captain Perry briefs his men that Peters has photographed vital enemy fortifications near Seoul, and volunteers Carter, Barkley, and Jordena to get Peters back through the lines with the photo plates in three days. The team crosses a river and scouts north Korean territory, but Peters is captured at dawn; Carter and the others pursue, discovering Peters is being forced to reveal information and must rescue him before the enemy can extract what he knows.
Trapped in thick fog behind enemy lines in North Korea, Sergeant Feeney and his tank crew stumble upon a massive Red ammunition dump—the very supply source fueling the enemy's assault. With only one tank and a handful of men, Feeney devises an audacious plan to destroy it, leading his crew through a series of deadly skirmishes to reach the objective and strike a blow against the Communist forces.
Captain Wilkes commands a lone tank racing to rescue an isolated American unit pinned down by overwhelming Red forces in Korea—but before reaching his objective, he discovers an enemy ambush in motion. With intelligence from a reconnaissance pilot and split-second tactical decisions, Wilkes must use his single tank to block an encircling maneuver and turn the enemy's own trap against them. It's a tense race against time where one crew's courage could mean the difference between annihilation and survival for an entire company.
When a new enemy jet is downed behind enemy lines during the Korean conflict, Captain Franks and a daring task force race against time to retrieve it—dodging enemy air and ground fire to haul the prize back to headquarters. As Marines hold the perimeter and a bulldozer clears the path, the real test comes when enemy reinforcements close in and a enemy tank bears down on the extraction team. It's a high-stakes gamble where every second counts and coordination between air support and ground troops becomes the difference between success and disaster.
Three infantry volunteers—Carter, Barkley, and Jorden—are tasked with an urgent and dangerous mission: slip behind North Korean lines, locate downed observation pilot Peters, and bring him and his vital intelligence back to U.N. forces. What begins as a desperate rescue operation becomes a race against impossible odds, as the trio must outthink their captors and risk everything to get their man home with the strategic photographs that could turn the tide of the conflict.
