This anthology issue contains two war stories. The first depicts an aerial dogfight in which a Corsair pilot named Hodde engages Japanese Zero fighters over the Pacific, successfully destroying enemy aircraft despite being outnumbered and sustaining damage that forces him into a desperate dive and eventual crash landing. The second story follows Marines landing in a jungle and engaging Japanese forces, including a soldier named Bob Hilsky who uses a machine gun to eliminate a Japanese sniper, and ends with Jake and other soldiers being rescued at sea after combat operations conclude near Shanghai.

A soldier named Pete endures repeated attempts to reach shore during an island landing, only to find his rifle rusted useless when Japanese snipers finally pin him down—forcing him to scavenge a dead Marine's weapon and hold the line until reinforcements arrive. Even as his outfit welcomes him back alive, Pete discovers a sniper's bullet has warped the shift key on his typewriter, denying him even the small comfort of recording his story. A tense 1964 war tale of survival against the odds, with nothing left untouched by combat.
