Synopsis:
The Haunted Tank enters a town that was the scene of a fierce battle. An army captain from Fox Company held the town until he died. Jeb promises to hold the town from enemy forces.

Two Nazi tanks approach. The Haunted Tank destroys one, then circles around to attack the other. Both tanks fire, knocking Jeb from his seat. The rest of his crew is knocked out.

An enemy soldier then approaches Jeb with a flame-thrower. Jeb is frozen in place, but the dead captain's death grip on his weapon causes it to fire. The enemy soldier falls. Jeb then uses the flame-thrower against the Nazi tank. He succeeds in holding the town until reinforcements arrive.
