Rules of Command
by Cyn Mobley
Price: $0.99 USD. 100530 words. Published on May 25, 2009. .
"Torpedo!" The sonarman's shrill voice echoed inside the cramped MIUW van. Bailey turned and was jerked back by the cord that connected her headset to the console. She untangled it from the console joystick and got as close as she could to the sonar console. "Where?" she demanded. The sonarman pointed at an oddly unstable signature on his screen. "There-it's not U.S., not Soviet."

Rites of War
by Cyn Mobley
Price: $0.99 USD. 104710 words. Published on May 25, 2009. .
Captain Kanko had no reason to suspect his submarine was in danger. The Korean Romeo-class diesel boat lurched from crest to trough like a drunken pig, sucking down air through her snorkel mast, running her engines at high rpm, and recharging her massive bank of batteries. Uncomfortable, running on the surface in rough seas, but hardly dangerous.

FATHER OF THE AMERICAN PARATROOPER
by Gusdavis Aughtry

General William C. Lee is the father of the American paratrooper. He is without equal in the annals of WW II history. Almost totally unknown to the general public, it surely is appropriate on the 65th anniversary of the D-Day invasion of France to give him some due. General Lee was felled by a massive heart attack and was not able to lead his beloved 101st Airborne into battle.
