Synopsis:
The Haunted Tank is one of four American tanks left to guard to area near Crecy. The enemy has them vastly outnumbered, but Jeb and the other tank commanders have order to hold the area until nightfall when reinforcements arrive. They must make the enemy think there are more tanks in the area to keep the Germans from advancing.

Jeb and his crew soon find themselves in several battles with enemy tanks. They escape from harm and manage to destroy their opponents. However, they hear over the radio, that the other three tanks have run into trouble in Crecy.

The Haunted Tank enters the town where Jeb finds the other tanks have been destroyed. He guides his tank through the streets and through buildings to take out the enemy. At nightfall, Jeb is the only tank left to have completed the mission. After rescuing Sgt. Rock from an enemy tank, Jeb returns to the lines where reinforcements have arrived.
