  • Panther Jet! · Frontline Combat · 8 pages

    Two Naval sailors are lamenting damage to a Panther Jet's shot-up nose on its last mission, but that is short-lived as orders come down aboard the aircraft carrier that it's time for yet another mission, and the pilots are briefed and aboard their jets quickly. All return, although one jet has the rudder shot up, but its nose intact, which now can be used to repair the other jet with nose damage.

    Young Mark Edelblut is tending his herd of sheep, along with his trained hawk, which suddenly senses the presence of a wolf. The hawk successfully drives the wolf away and Mark heads home, only to find his father's castle being attacked by the army of Baron Von Wolffe. The young boy sends his hawk to the attack, driving away the Baron and causing confusion among his armed troops, and allowing the defenders of Edelblut to push back the Army and kill the Baron.

    The French are enraptured by the antics of American ace Frank Luke, a pilot who often disobeyed the orders of his superiors, yet racked up victory after victory in the air until that fatal day.
