Lieut. Ken Moore and fellow pilots of the Eagle Squadron draw for the next combat assignment, but a mysterious fortune teller's warnings about death and sacrifice complicate matters when an experimental suicide torpedo mission against the Nazis becomes a test of courage and sacrifice. When a young pilot's fate hangs in the balance, Lieut. Ken Moore makes a fateful decision to take his place on the deadly run in this 1942 war story by Capt. Derek West.

Major Albert F. Kalberer leads a daring Allied bombing run against Italian warships steaming east of Malta, with bombardiers and crews piloting massive Liberators to strike a heavily defended enemy convoy. Under Kalberer's command, the bombers rake the battleships with devastating accuracy—racking up thirty-five direct hits before British torpedo planes arrive to finish the job. It's a textbook aerial victory that showcases the skill and coordination of American aircrews in the thick of World War II combat.
