Attack #4
Attack #4 is a war anthology featuring multiple stories of military combat. "I Was a P.O.W." recounts Lieutenant James Jordan's true account of a daring prison break by two American officers from the Nazi POW camp Stalag VII, followed by their escape under the watch of the Gestapo. "Merrill's Marauders" depicts the 5307th Composite Unit's final engagement to capture the Myitkina Airfield in Burma during World War II, with soldiers fighting through jungles and mountains to overcome the Japanese 18th Division. A third story follows American pilots during the Korean War as they conduct patrol missions and engage in aerial combat against enemy forces.
