Yanks in Battle #1

A furlough in the French Riviera turns into a desperate fight for survival when Platoon J stumbles onto a Communist takeover of the coastal town of Barcloche—and discovers enemy forces have seized fifty scientists from a local research laboratory. With the Reds controlling the town and holding their captives hostage, the G.I.s must fight their way through machine-gun nests and house-to-house combat to stop the enemy from escaping with their prisoners. It's a vacation that becomes a commando operation, as these war-tested soldiers are forced to think fast and fight harder than they bargained for.

When Air Corps Captain Jed Norris' jet fighter fails over the Pacific near the Ito Islands, he bails out and finds himself stranded on Fojima—only to discover the island has been secretly occupied by Communist forces planning an invasion of Japan. Trapped and outnumbered, Norris must rely on an unlikely ally: Kee Mo, a reclusive Japanese writer who has withdrawn from the world but cannot stand by while tyranny takes hold. Together, they improvise a desperate defense against overwhelming odds, turning the tables on their captors in a battle neither expected to fight.

Lieutenant Terry's transport plane is shot down by Bulgarian forces over Yugoslav territory, forcing him and his men into a desperate fight for survival alongside local Yugoslav troops. When Major Dusoff attempts to cover up his blunder by lying to his own soldiers and ordering their destruction, Terry must rally both his American outfit and the disillusioned Bulgarian troops to turn the tide. It's a tight border skirmish where courage and quick thinking matter more than numbers.

When Corporal Bill Critten finally gets the action he's been craving on garrison duty in West Germany, it comes in the form of desperate Americans fleeing kidnappers across the border—followed by a Red Army determined to recapture them. With only his small patrol against overwhelming numbers, Critten must rally his men and hold the line, discovering that sometimes the post you thought was boring is exactly where you're needed most.
