 * StoryTitle1        = The Last Stand
 * Synopsis1          = Combat Kelly and Cookie Novak were among American troops clearing Kawawa Atoll of Imperial Japanese forces. When they arrived on the island they found that the enemy troops were at the top of a massive stone tower, putting them out of range of their weapons. The American troops are kept at bay thanks to grenades dropped by the Japanese.

Captain Thorne orders his troops to fall back and then orders Combat and the others to wait until night and try to scale the tower with grappling hooks. However, the Japanese are prepared for this and dump fire balls down on them to keep them back. Trying to blast out the tower, Combat and the others find that explosives bounce off the irregularly shaped base of the tower. However Combat quickly comes up with a solution: Covering a bundle of TNT with mud he lobs it at the tower with a make-shift sling shot. The mud causes the explosives to stick causing a successful blast.

They then begin lobbing more and more explosives until the tower finally breaks sending the Japanese soldiers toppling to their death and tons of rocks falling on Japanese tanks. Captain Thorne and the troops celebrate their victory, renaming the island "Combat" Atoll thanks to Kelly's quick thinking.

 * StoryTitle2        = Military Police!
 * Synopsis2          = Combat Kelly and Cookie Novak are now members of the Military Police in Berlin. One night they are out on patrol looking for spies and catch Russian spies trying to steal from a freight car. They are forced to abandon their patrol jeep when the spies unhook a rail car and send it crashing into their vehicle. They follow after the spies but are too late to stop them from boarding a street car and riding out of the American sector and into the Russian sector of Germany.

They report back to Major Thorne who tells them that they have to stop spies from stealing any more of their supplies. Back out on patrol the next night, Combat and Cookie spot more spies and chase after them. This time when the spies get into a street car, Cookie is able to drive up close enough for Combat to jump aboard. Cookie however is stopped at the border check point by Russian guards.

Inside the street car, Combat makes short work of the spies and then forces the driver to reverse the street car and drive it back to the American zone, smashing through the Russian guards in the process. For their success, Combat and Cookie are called into a meeting with Major Thorne who promotes them to the ranks of Sargent.
