The Eagles' Shame
8 pp · war
American EagleThe Eagles [Reb FolsomHotrock HutchinsUgly Harrison Clymes]

When American Eagle's flight engages enemy jet fighters during a crucial ground support mission, he loses focus on protecting the armor column below—with devastating consequences for the infantry they were meant to defend. Grounded and facing court-martial by a vengeful colonel, American Eagle must prove himself by leading Reb Folsom, Hotrock Hutchins, and Ugly Harrison Clymes on a desperate strike against the Nazi panzer division that's tearing through American forces. Improvisation and courage become the Eagles' only weapons when ammunition runs low and conventional tactics fail.

The Secret Air Force
8 pp · war

Lt. Artie Wall becomes his squadron's sole operational fighter when a devastating Japanese raid destroys nearly all the Lockheed Lightnings on a New Guinea airstrip in February 1943—but Major Cartwright devises a desperate plan to keep the enemy from learning how badly they've been crippled. By repainting the P-38 with different markings and squadron colors between missions, Wall must convince the Japanese he's leading multiple flights of fighters, all while flying dangerous low-level strikes against enemy positions and enduring constant pressure to keep the one plane that stands between the base and invasion intact.

Enemies Below
1 pp · adventure; non-fiction

During World War II, Allied servicemen who found themselves in the ocean faced threats beyond enemy submarines—the sea itself harbored deadly predators including sharks, killer whales, and moray eels that claimed unwary victims. This account examines the real dangers that lurked in the depths and how servicemen, despite being vastly outnumbered by nature's killers, adapted and persevered against the ocean's most formidable creatures.

No Total Loss
5 pp · war
Back Porch Warrior
1 pp · war
