5935: Commandos Vs Zombies 5
After the explosive events on the island, Oberfuhrer Randolph Mensch flew towards his private prisoner-of-war-camp. Housed there were the Soviet and British inmates Mensch used for his vile, mad experiments.
Miles away, a small raiding force of British Commandos were on a doomed mission – and they had no idea what was awaiting them at the camp!

5936: The Good Soldier
Mario Galasso was a very good type indeed — brave, cool-headed and thoughtful. In battle, he would never ask his men to do anything he wouldn’t do himself.
But when he returned to his home village after the war, he was arrested for war crimes! And the trouble was, he seemed to be the only one who knew he was innocent…

The Island of Crete,1941. What did an English Nurse, a Māori soldier, a Cretan monk and a German general all have in common? They were all captured in Crete!
After German paratroopers descend on the island, the Allied forces, nurses and Cretan people must fight back against the invaders in any way they can. Resistance and soldiers unite, while Nurse Stavros moves over 500 wounded soldiers to a cave and tricks the Germans into feeding them — all inspired by true events!

5938: The Two Deserters
It wasn’t that Mike Briers had really meant to desert. Not exactly. It was just that Foxy Billings had persuaded him to leave the rest of the lads so that the two of them would have a better chance of escaping the Germans.
So how was it that he found himself wearing civilian clothes and fighting for his life on top of a French goods train that was about to be sent to its destruction?
