The Black Mole Terrorist Group steal a Concorde prototype and take it to the North Pole. Dredger and Breed fly in to recover the aircraft with the help of a Royal Marine task force led by the implausibly named Major Straight, who lives up to the writer's unfortunate nomenclature. Straight leads his men into an ambush and it is up to Dredger to bail them out. Straight's leadership leaves four of his men dead once Dredger has saved the day, giving cause for some wry comments from the hard man of D.I.6. |  | Green's Grudge War
The Commandos sneak into a German E-Boat base aboard a French trawler. Their mission is to destroy the gates that guard against the sea. As the boat enters port, the Commandos are discovered and quickly disembark to engage the Germans. Green pushes Bold overboard then uses the boat to ram the gates, which was Bold's idea. He succeeds but the impact of a shell renders him unconscious. When he comes round, all the other Commandos are German prisoners, but the enemy commander singles out Green for his heroism, and orders that he be shot by a firing squad. |  | Hellman of the Afrika Korps
Rommel contacts Hellman with a special command. He must assume command of a sector where the ranking officer has been killed. Taking his last remaining panzer, Hellman heads for Yellow Sector, possibly named thus by the writer as the command is an Italian unit. Hellman teaches a masterclass in panzer tactics as the Italians engage a group of Springbok tanks. Finally he uses the enemy radio frequency, which he knows the Italians are monitoring, and with his skills in English, calls the Italians cowards. Enraged, the Italians fend off the superior Springbok numbers, but Hellman knows that unless reinforcements arrive soon, they will all die. |  | Blackjack
