Stories

    Miller is sick and tired of having to fight the enemy Korean soldiers and is equally tired of having American units having to integrate ROK soldiers into their midst. He is especially ticked off at one of his fellow soldiers, Matthews, who spends his time reading from the Holy Bible.

  • McCudden! · 7 pages

    One time bugler and airplane mechanic McCudden, after a series of air engagements as an observer, becomes a pilot and commander of the famed 56th Squadron, winning 58 victories and numerous awards, halted because of a tragic accident.

  • Captain Teach · 1 pages
  • Vengeful Sioux! · 6 pages

    Colonel Custer is out looking for more of the Sioux Indians along the Redbud River when he and his unit are surprised by a Sioux attack. One of his men, pretending he is dead, senses an Indian approaching, aiming to scalp him, but, instead wants only his cap. The soldier knocks out his enemy, retrieves the hat, and heads back to camp. Once there, he spots one of his fellow soldiers, dead, and finds himself surrounded by the Sioux. They seem friendly and even offer him a night's lodging in a tepee. He enters and spots the Indian he knocked out wearing a 7th Cavalry hat, armed with a tomahawk.
