The Captive
6 pp · war

When a U.S. Navy Catalina patrol plane forces a damaged Nazi submarine to surrender, an American submarine crew is tasked with an audacious mission: they'll take over the captured vessel, disguise themselves as Germans, and attempt to infiltrate the enemy port of Bremerhaven. What unfolds is a tense infiltration deep into German waters, where one wrong move could expose the daring gambit.

Breakdown
4 pp · war

Commander "Salty John" Phillips knows the treacherous waters near Korea like no one else in the Navy, but three years of Pacific patrols have pushed his nerves to the edge—and the medics want him benched. When a critical mission to rescue downed pilots and retrieve vital intelligence documents from Hamheung Harbor demands his expertise, the Admiral overrules the doctors, and Phillips takes his submarine into enemy-controlled waters despite his deteriorating condition. As depth charges rain down and his executive officer struggles to navigate unfamiliar channels, Phillips must somehow hold himself together long enough to guide the boat through one of the war's most dangerous passages.

The Helmet
1 pp · non-fiction; war

"The Helmet" showcases the development and battlefield effectiveness of a new military headgear introduced by U.S. planners shortly before World War II. Issued to all combat personnel, this helmet proved its worth time and again in the thick of action, consistently protecting American soldiers in danger zones across the conflict.

Glamor Boy
8 pp · war

Ensign J. Lawson Harte is the Navy's glamor boy—a decorated fighter pilot fresh from eight aerial victories—until his cockiness during a combat mission gets him grounded by his commanding officer, who decides the hotshot needs a harsh lesson in discipline. Stripped of his wings and reassigned to command a shabby landing craft, LCI 379, Harte discovers that true naval service means more than personal glory, and when his demoralized crew and rusty vessel are converted into a rocket-launching platform, he finally finds a way to prove himself as an officer rather than just a pilot. His journey from carrier deck to amphibious warfare shows that the Navy values soldiers who follow orders and lead men, not medals.
