The stories

“Rebel Tank”

The new commander, a jingoistic southerner, is incensed at Jeb Stuart sharing the name of a Confederate general. He puts Jeb and his crew on errands that keep them out of combat, but they rescue the major when he loses most of the unit.

“Sniper's Roost!”

One soldier slowly works his way close enough to kill the sniper.

“Tin Pot Listening Post!”

A soldier at a forward outpost is terrified by every jungle sound, but manages to kill an attacker and fulfill his mission.

“Broomstick Pilot!”

The C.O. orders his pilots to fly at highest altitude. But Morgan, a former barnstormer, fulfills his mission and saves his crew by flying as low as possible.
