5315: Ironhide
Alf Hubbert was a country boy with a knack for working on machines. And
so, in 1917, he was thrust into a Mark IV “Male” configuration tank
named “Lydia”. In the hot, noisy landship, Alf had to learn the hard way
that he may be able to fix machines with ease but he couldn’t replace
his friends as easily. But when he’s finally forced to choose, will he
pick Lydia or his mates?

5316: Secret of the Sands
‘Secret of the Sands’ is a classic Commando, and make no mistake!
Lieutenant Luke Cope could cope with everything and anything as he
traversed the desert sands of North Africa! Or at least he could until
he met bookworm Trooper, “Steinie” Wallace, who had read more books than
he had sense! But when these two characters joined forces it was as if
the legendary General Hannibal lived again!

5317: Catalina Sunrise
Hot-headed Australian cattle-herder-turned-pilot Flight Lieutenant Bill
Mitchell thought he was the best thing since sliced bread. Only that
meant he was reckless and had trouble following orders. Booted out of
flying Hurricanes in North Africa, Bill was returned to Australia then
sent to New Guinea to fly Kittyhawks, then Beaufighters until his
disregard of orders got so bad that the only squadron that would have
him was flying Catalinas. Let’s just say, Bill was less than pleased!

5318: Rescue!
Two Motor Torpedo Boats had skippers whose friendly rivalry was less
than friendly at the best of times! Like chalk and cheese, Lieutenant
Dave Hopkirk was easy-going while Lieutenant George Stone was strictly
business by the book. But when someone was needed to rescue some blokes
from a castle in Greece — these men were the ones for the job! If they
could work together for five minutes that is…
