Synopsis for "Death Comes in Three's"
Carrying two of their own dead, a battle-weary patrol heads back to the American lines. Private Starke is worried, telling his sergeant that he has always believed that death strikes in three of a kind. Two have already been killed, and now one of them is the target of death. They hear gunfire, and turn around to find Private Jones lying face down on the ground. Starke sees it as confirmation of his superstition, but then Jones gets up, alive and with only a small wound on his leg. The Sarge, smug that Starke's beliefs have been proven false, orders him over to help Jones. But then, as Starke runs over, he steps on a land mine and is killed. The Sarge is shocked... Starke was right! The third dead was his own!
