Contains 4 stories
Line Officer
6 pp · war

Sgt. Elliot has spent two wars watching commanders come and go, but when a sniper claims his respected Captain, the grizzled veteran must size up a nervous young Lieutenant who arrives to fill those impossible shoes. As the outfit fights its way toward Baker Company through enemy territory, Elliot discovers that this untested officer thinks in ways no line officer should—but when a daring trap springs perfectly and a risky river crossing takes shape, the Sergeant begins to wonder if he's been judging too harshly.

The Big Birds
6 pp · war

A fighter pilot has long dismissed bomber crews as glorified taxi drivers, convinced that real flying belongs only to pursuit ship pilots—until a mission over enemy territory forces him to see things differently. When his P-47 takes damage during a fierce dogfight and he finds himself crippled and alone in hostile skies, he discovers that survival depends on the very "big birds" he'd been mocking. In the crucible of combat, both pilots learn a hard lesson about interdependence and mutual respect.

Buddha Smiled
6 pp · war

An American patrol establishes a makeshift observation post in a remote temple, only to discover an enemy patrol closing in from the other direction—and soon both sides are locked in a desperate firefight with an ancient stone idol as their only shelter. As the battle intensifies and mortar fire rains down, the soldiers must decide whether to flee under cover of darkness or make a stand and fight back. "Buddha Smiled" captures the weight of wartime choices against the patient, timeless gaze of history itself.

Coward
5 pp · war

When a patrol led by a young lieutenant walks into an enemy ambush and goes silent, a captain haunted by whispers of cowardice faces an impossible choice: wait for orders or risk everything to find out what happened to his men. As tension mounts at the command post and even his superiors doubt his nerve, the captain must decide whether to prove himself or let fear win.
