Record Battle
8 pp

Private Joe Yank and Sergeant Mike McGurk are pinned down at a hidden observation post deep in enemy territory, tasked with protecting a wounded signal corps operator and delivering a crucial intelligence message about a planned communist offensive. When the radio is destroyed and their comrade dies before passing on the final clue—"Easy 1000"—the soldiers must crack the mystery before enemy forces overwhelm their position. What they discover is an ingenious but fragile deception that just might buy them the time they need to survive the night.

The First Warning
0.5 pp
The Boob Trap
5 pp

Private Joe Yank stumbles upon a treasure map dropped mysteriously into his lap during a lull in the Korean fighting, only to discover that he's far from alone—his sergeant Mike and even Captain Trivett have received identical maps. What starts as a squabble over riches takes a sharp turn when the trio realizes the whole setup is a Communist ambush, and Joe must think fast to turn the enemy's own trap back on them. It's a tale of quick wits beating cold cunning, with a twist that proves sometimes the best treasure is outsmarting your opponent.

Operation Salami
3 pp

During the Korean War, a soldier's prized salami from home becomes the unlikely center of chaos when a buddy sabotages it with hot sauce as revenge for being refused a taste. When a hungry enemy soldier discovers the booby-trapped prize, the tables turn in ways neither American anticipated, leading to a wild scramble across the battlefield.

What a Maneuver
6 pp

When P.F.C. Pinhead Perkins chases a runaway horse during military maneuvers, he stumbles into an unexpected encounter with the enemy commander's daughter—and an even more unexpected opportunity to snag the opposing force's secret battle plan. What starts as a bumbling attempt to show some initiative spirals into a chase that lands him in the middle of a full-scale ambush, complete with all the chaos and consequences that come with it. Find out how Pinhead's knack for stumbling into trouble turns into something that might just save the day—or at least get him into a very different kind of mess.

Joe's Protege
5 pp · war

Private Joe Yank takes bumbling Private Frankie Fudde under his wing to make him a real soldier, but soon discovers that his well-meaning mentorship has an unexpected—and hilarious—side effect when the shy recruit's innocent charm starts winning over every woman he meets. When a battlefield crisis puts Joe's life in the hands of his hapless protégé, Frankie finally gets the chance to prove his worth in the most surprising way possible.

Prowlers in the Night
1 pp

Three young soldiers volunteer for the most perilous assignment a doughfoot can draw—a reconnaissance patrol deep behind enemy lines where speed, silence, and nerve are everything. Moving single-file through rice paddies under cover of darkness, the patrol hunts for prisoners and intelligence, knowing that one mistake could mean their last night alive. "Prowlers in the Night" captures the grim reality of Korean War reconnaissance in stark, unflinching detail.
