Death Song for a Battle Hawk!

Story Featuring Johnny Cloud

Storyline

Lt. Johnny Cloud's plane sinks with a load of special magnetic torpedoes, but he failed against a Nazi killer ship, and lost Swift Hawk... Cloud recalls how, as a boy, a hawk saved him from a wolf. Now another "Swift Hawk is his "co-pilot". The hawk leads C flight through cloud cover to a killer ship targeting Merchant Marine vessels. Swift Hawk suicide-bombs a plane as Johnny's sinks to the bottom. Yet the explosion jars loose the torpedoes and frees him - to find a new-hatched "Little Swift Hawk" waits back at base.

Battling Tin Can And Wooden Crate!
Storyline

In WW1, Frank and Pete, old buddies, become rivals as one pilots a "wooden crate" biplane and the other drives a "tin can" tank. They bet on who'll win a medal first. But their missions seem jinxed as they run out of fuel, jam machine guns, catch fire, lose a prop. Keeping an eye on each other in battle, the biplane is shot down to crash - atop the tank! They clatter and shoot and finally ram an enemy tank... Both in hospital, both get medals - but continue to argue planes vs tanks!
