Synopsis for "The Losers"
Jeb has orders to take out a German radar tower which is hidden in a town hall, but the haunted tank is surprised by a three tank ambush which busts up the tank's cannon and the crew has to retreat. On the road, they pick up Captain Storm, whose PT boat struck a mine resulting in the loss of his entire crew. Next, they encounter Sarge and Gunner who had been showing the ropes to six green apples when they fell prey to a Nazi ambush that only Sarge and Gunner survived. Finally, the tank comes across downed pilot Johnny Cloud who has lost his wingman. They dub themselves the Losers as they have nothing left to lose anymore and Jeb suggests they can get even with the enemy by helping him complete his mission to destroy the radar tower. With the Losers flanking the enemy, and the haunted tank's machine gun providing a distraction, the team is able to succeed in Jeb's mission.
