A lieutenant commanding a tank crew must prevent his men from firing on unarmed soldiers; when a second enemy tank arrives, the situation escalates into a fierce armored engagement with heavy casualties on both sides. The story depicts the chaos and moral dilemmas of tank warfare, including the destruction of enemy armor and the desperate struggle for survival on the battlefield. An additional story features scientists who have developed a classified radar device called "Radar," which is discovered by enemy forces; a U-boat is spotted at sea, and an anti-submarine aircraft is dispatched to intercept it, culminating in a bombing run that destroys the enemy vessel.

Contains 4 stories
Double Ambush
8 pp · War

A tank commander leading Pershing tanks north of Seoul finds himself caught between a Russian T-34 and a desperate fight for survival when enemy forces spring a coordinated ambush. After losing three tanks to superior enemy armor, he's given a chance at redemption with upgraded equipment and a daring strategy—but the Chinese and North Korean forces have their own plans for a double trap. With a spotter plane overhead and smoke as his only shield, he'll need perfect timing and firepower to turn the tables before the enemy closes in for the kill.

My Brother the Hero
4 pp · War
The Silent Killers
3 pp · War

During World War II, Nazi U-boats prowl the North Atlantic as deadly hunters, tasked with strangling England's supply lines by sinking convoys laden with troops, arms, and fuel. When a heavily laden freighter fleet sails across seemingly calm waters, the escorting destroyers struggle to defend against an unseen menace—and aboard U-132, Kapitan Ernst Schmidt readies his next strike. This wartime tale captures the brutal cat-and-mouse game beneath the waves that shaped the outcome of the conflict.

Killer
8 pp · War

A young officer commanding the 3rd Platoon on the European front struggles with the brutal necessities of combat when a farmhouse assault leaves him haunted by his own deadly efficiency—and his men begin to whisper that he's become something more than a soldier. As he earns a reputation as a killer, earning both respect and fear from his platoon, he finds himself unable to step away from the war, even when offered rest and leave in Paris. Caught between the horror of what he's becoming and the grim reality that his platoon needs him, Lieutenant Canelli must reckon with who he is and who the war has forced him to be.
