Contains 6 stories
One Hitch Gyrene
6 pp · war

A young Marine named Skinny, known for his repeated enlistments and short stints, finds himself back in combat during World War II, grappling with the weight of his past decisions and the constant pull of duty. As he fights alongside seasoned comrades, including Gunner Hawes and Major Crake, he confronts the reality that some men are never truly done with war—even when they swear they are.

The Bluff That Worked
2 pp · war

Captain Palerмо leads a small group of Marines in a daring ruse, using noise and deception to make the Japanese believe a full division is attacking from the left. As the enemy scrambles to respond, the Marines exploit the confusion to push forward, turning a bluff into a real advance.

A.W.O.L.
5 pp · war

Sergeant Joe Mastros is on the run from his duties, claiming he’s been evading the military to pursue a personal mission—though his reasons are far from simple. When he’s caught, he recounts a whirlwind week of hitchhiking to Korea, joining a combat unit, and taking command after the officers are killed, all while trying to avoid being discovered.

Let's Get Casey
5 pp · war

In the midst of a grueling retreat, the weary Marines hear the fading voice of Casey, the man they once mocked, still holding Signal Hill against a powerful armored division. Though abandoned and out of supplies, Casey’s defiance inspires the entire unit to turn back and mount a desperate rescue, charging up the hill despite exhaustion and danger.

C.O. for a Day!
6 pp · war

Pvt. Jordie Clark, a seasoned but perpetually grumbling private, unexpectedly finds himself in command during a tense mission in Korea when his lieutenant is wounded. Forced to lead his squad through sniper fire, enemy flanking maneuvers, and a tank threat, he proves surprisingly capable despite his usual reluctance. As the day ends and his platoon is relieved, Clark is stunned to learn he’s been promoted to second lieutenant—much to his dismay.

A Wing and a Prayer
1 pp · war

A young Marine pilot, barely conscious after a dangerous flight, struggles to bring his damaged aircraft in for a landing as his crewmates below hold their breath. With the plane in critical condition and no clear way to ensure a safe touchdown, the men on the ground rally in prayer—hoping their faith and courage will see them through.
