Synopsis:
While patroling the Pacific, Hop and Tank spot a Japanese convoy. Their plane is shot down, so the duo are forced to take refuge on a small island. Hop creates a few dummy planes to draw the attention of the Japanese convoy. Then working with a PT boat captain, they sink the convot escort. Before the Japanese can storm the island, American reinforcements arrive. Hop and Tank survive the crash of their PT boat and are picked up by the American fleet.
