The Budd RB-1 Conestoga, known as the "Flying Boxcar," represents a decade of intensive engineering research brought to life—a revolutionary cargo aircraft built from stainless steel with spot-welded construction instead of rivets. With its spacious freight compartment, dual controls, and impressive ability to lift over 10,000 pounds after a short 920-foot runway, this unusual warbird demonstrates that American innovation in aircraft design is delivering real results for the Army.

This page presents two distinct stories. The first section, "Flying Arsenal," is a non-fiction technical brief describing the armaments and firepower of the North American B-25 H Mitchell Bomber as used in World War II combat across all theaters. The second story, "Pacific Pandemonium" by Ben Altman, follows Red Cross as he tends to survivors from a torpedoed cargo transport, using ingenuity and medical knowledge to keep a lifeboat's occupants alive through storms, hunger, and thirst—until a Japanese submarine surfaces with deadly intent. Red Cross must draw on both his training and courage to protect the defenseless sailors adrift in the Pacific.

Blimp Blitz
4 pp · war

When a newly trained Navy ensign takes command of the K-2, a 250-foot blimp equipped with depth bombs and machine guns, he and his crew head out on Atlantic patrol to hunt Nazi U-boats prowling American waters. What starts as a routine flight becomes a test of nerve when they detect a submarine below and move in to attack, only to face deadly return fire from the enemy vessel. This action-packed tale follows the real training and tactics of the U.S. Navy's blimp patrols in their relentless campaign against Axis submarines.

Interceptor Command
6 pp · war

When fourteen unidentified enemy aircraft are detected heading toward the American-held island of Truk, the Interceptor Command springs into action—a coordinated network of radar operators, controllers, and ground observers working in split-second harmony to detect, track, and intercept the threat. This story pulls back the curtain on how fighter planes are scrambled and directed with surgical precision, from the flight controller's command center to the pilots in the air, showcasing the specialized teamwork that keeps enemy bombers from reaching their targets. Along the way, we see how ground forces and air support work together on the Western Front, relaying intelligence about enemy positions and coordinating strikes that can mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Douglass SBD Dauntless
1 pp · non-fiction; aviation; war

The Douglass SBD Dauntless dive bomber has become a workhorse across the Allied war effort, earning its reputation through outstanding performance in every theater of World War II. This technical overview explores the aircraft's rugged design, impressive specifications—including its 1,200 horsepower Wright engine and service ceiling exceeding 25,000 feet—and its dual role as both a Navy carrier-based scout and an Army land-based bomber that rivals even the German Stuka in capability.

The Old Man of the Air

Sky Scouts

When a wounded bomber limps back from enemy territory with a mysterious passenger aboard—a figure the dying pilot calls the Old Man of the Air—the Sky Scouts investigate a legend whispered among pilots as an omen of doom. As Bob and Jimmy prepare to transport secret military intelligence, they discover the "Old Man" is no supernatural specter but a Japanese spy using an elaborate disguise to eliminate witnesses and steal vital equipment from doomed Allied aircraft. The Sky Scouts must stay sharp when enemy fighters force their transport plane down, because this time the legend itself might be the only thing standing between them and the briefcase in their possession.
