Showing results for "Trouble" in War & Military

1794: In the wake of the Glorious First of June, Lieutenant John Pearce has pressing matters to attend to. He must undertake an urgent commission from Lord Hood, track down midshipman Toby Burns, and placate Emily Barclay. Meanwhile smugglers whose ship Pearce inadvertently stole, are on his tail. And it is not only John Pearce who has his fair share of trouble. The triumphant Channel Fleet returns, but the battle is already the subject of controversy - and Ralph Barclay is accused of holding back from the action.

It is 1942. Four badly wounded, medically discharged veterans fight one last battle for their friends and country in the steamy streets of Chinatown, Hawaii! President Roosevelt orders all the money in Hawaii collected, destroyed, and replaced by money with Hawaii written across the back of each bill—funny money that the Japs can't use if they invade the Hawaiian Islands, if Guadalcanal falls. Millions of dollars collected and some of the money is about to be taken by anybody who is somebody.
