True stories of eight great American heroes who have proved their worth since Pearl Harbor. Bulkeley's P. T. night raid on the boat in Subic Bay; Captain Arthur Wermuth, a lone hero on Bataan; Captain Colin Kelly; Sergeant Olsen, the photographer who fought; Billy DeRose of the Bronx who lost his life on the Newfoundland coast when the Pollux ran aground (one of the most stirring stories yet); Sergeant Russell Brown and his Winged Victory; Captain Mathieson of the Lahiana and finally General MacArthur.
