Stories

  • Dinosaur Bait! · 14.33 pages

    Subs are disappearing in Area X-9. Jim will command a sub as "bait" while brother Nicky shepherds in his bomber aloft. The sub is nabbed by a "dinosaur fish", but the bomber is attacked by a flying dinosaur, then a flock of pterodactyls. The bomber plops atop a ptero and the crew bails out. Landing (on Dinosaur Island), they fight dinosaurs... Nicky recalls how older brother Jim would use him a bait to lure rival gangs into ambush... The bomber crew uses life rafts to reach the beached sub. They KO the last dinosaurs and the brother reunite. Just like old times.

  • Air Force War Mottos · 1 pages
  • "General" Sarge · 9.67 pages

    In North Africa, Sarge is a "jeep jockey" for a general. He imagines leading charges into battle -- and gets his chance. The jeep is blown up, the general hurt. Sarge drags the general to an old French Foreign Legion fort, but Nazis hold it. Sarge uses a junk tank to gain the fort, but more Nazis show up. Donning the general's helmet, Sarge bravely stands up to them -- and the Nazis surrender! "A fighting combat sergeant [is] the kind all generals want to be!"
