High as a Hero!
6 pp · war

When a scrappy G.I. named Shorty O'Brien gets volunteered to test the Army's latest experimental nylon bullet-proof vest, he's sure it's all a setup—or maybe even a death sentence. But when his unit stumbles into enemy fire during a combat patrol, O'Brien and his makeshift armor get a chance to prove just how much heart can matter in a firefight. A rousing Korean War tale that shows sometimes the smallest soldier carries the biggest courage.

Crash-Proof Cargo
2 pp · war

Captain John Cassey's leisurely sightseeing tour in Tokyo takes an abrupt turn when he's rushed to the airport with urgent orders—and handed a briefcase containing a million dollars that he must deliver to General Winthrop in Soompagg, with Sergeant Max Saler assigned as his special guard. With the case literally chained to his wrist, the Captain faces the challenge of protecting this crash-proof cargo on a dangerous wartime journey. What begins as a routine courier mission promises to test both his nerve and his resourcefulness.

Front Line Maneuver
6 pp · war

When a patrol led by G.I. Jim Peters is ordered to scout enemy positions on what seems like a quiet day at the front, what begins as a routine reconnaissance mission quickly spirals into intense combat. Peters must navigate treacherous terrain, outwit determined foes, and make split-second decisions that will determine whether he and his men make it back alive. This 1957 war story captures the unpredictable dangers soldiers faced when orders met reality on the battlefield.

Johnny Reb
6 pp · war

Clem Yates is a proud Southern soldier whose unwavering devotion to his great-grandfather's Civil War legacy makes him the barracks oddball—until his unorthodox tactics and fearless attitude prove invaluable when his unit faces combat in Korea. When a dangerous patrol encounter tests his mettle, this "Johnny Reb" discovers that his eccentric spirit might just be exactly what his squad needs to survive.

An Impractical Joke
6 pp · war

Captain Tex learns the hard way that even the Army's latest gadget—a compact jet-powered helicopter called the Jet Jeep—can't help a pilot caught joking around when enemy fighters attack. When three MiGs swoop down on his position, Tex's "toy" becomes his only defense, and he'll have to think fast to turn the tables on the raiders. A lighthearted war story where a practical joke turns into a race for survival at thirty thousand feet.
