Synopsis:
Jeb Stuart receives a radio message from tank commander Al Kalman. Kalman reports enemy tanks in the town of Morteville. Al's tank is destroyed, so Jeb and the Haunted Tank are deployed to hold the enemy until more tanks arrive.
The Haunted Tank arrives in Morteville and begins battling the enemy tanks. Heavily outnumbered, Jeb is chased through the town until an enemy shell disables his tank. Jeb then uses a bazooka against the enemy. More tanks chase him, until Jeb finds the wreckage of Al's tank. He manages to fire its gun, destroying his pursuers. Jeb's actions successfully delay the enemy until the reinforcements arrive.
