Winter Warriors

by Stuart Slade

One great German offensive has broken through the Russian front to leave an Allied army trapped in the frozen wasteland of the Kola Peninsula. Now opposing ski-troops battle to hold the ground occupied by their armies. Meanwhile, the German Navy sets sail in an effort to destroy the convoys that keep the allied troops on Kola alive. In the midst of the fighting, a U.S. Navy railway gun crew mount a desperate battle to save their guns from the advancing German troops. Meanwhile, in Washington another political battle is being fought, one that is no less deadly than that being fought on the Kola Peninsula
