Contains 6 stories
Make Him a Soldier
7 pp · war

Sergeant Paul Shayne carries a deathbed promise: to look after Eddie Miller's younger brother Don when he joins the Army. But when Don arrives at the training center as a stubborn, hot-headed recruit, Shayne's tough discipline clashes head-on with the kid's refusal to take orders—leaving the sergeant wondering if he can forge a soldier out of someone so determined to go his own way. As the platoon ships out to the Korean front, Shayne and Don will discover whether grit, loyalty, and the heat of combat can finally bridge the gap between them.

Just a Few Guys!
5 pp · war

Private Vic Deal gripes that the infantry is obsolete in modern warfare—until a patrol ordered to scout enemy positions in heavily wooded terrain discovers a massive Communist buildup that air reconnaissance couldn't spot. Racing against time to complete their mission, Deal and his squad must fight through determined resistance to reach and destroy a vital tunnel supplying enemy forces. A gritty tale about how boots on the ground still matter when the big picture hangs in the balance.

0.5 pp · non-fiction; war
Routine Patrol
5 pp · war

During the Korean War, a U.N. patrol ventures near the town of Bolangpo on what should be a routine reconnaissance mission—but quickly finds itself pinned down by escalating enemy fire, from riflemen to tanks and machine guns. As the sergeant struggles to hold his scattered squad together through waves of contact, casualties mount and the patrol must fight its way back to friendly lines. It's a visceral look at what actually happens behind the official military communiques that make it into the newspapers.

Too Many Cooks
5 pp · war

Two cooks in Charlie Company, Dave Morgan and Augie Lorch, have spent their entire service peeling onions instead of fighting—until enemy forces suddenly break through their lines. Forced to use their wits when captured by the Reds, the pair hatches a daring plan during a high-stakes dinner they're ordered to prepare for an enemy general. What starts as kitchen duty becomes their shot at turning the tables.

Engineers Have Hairy Ears
7 pp · war

Combat engineers in Korea are the unsung backbone of the war effort—mocked by infantrymen as mere builders, but when a Bailey bridge must span the treacherous Kwansong River in spring 1952, Crewson and his unit discover that holding the line against enemy attacks, collapsing dams, and relentless Chinese assaults demands just as much courage and sacrifice as any frontline battle. As they fight to complete and defend their bridge against waves of enemy fire, the engineers prove that sometimes the real fighting happens at the bridgehead.
