Deutermann Lieutenant Bobby Steele, USN, is a fresh-faced and eager naval aviator: a "Nugget," who needs to learn the ropes and complex procedures of taking off and returning safely to his aircraft carrier. A blurry night of drinking lands him in an unfamiliar bed aboard the USS Oklahoma; later that day, the Japanese destroy Pearl Harbor. After cheating death and losing his friend in this act of war, the formerly naive Steele vows to avenge the attack.

Packed with authentic military action on land and at sea in the Pacific Theatre of WWII and featuring a memorable protagonist based on a true-life hero, The Nugget is a first-class adventure by a former commander whose family served in the Pacific.

The battle rages on every front.... NATO armored divisions have broken out from near-certain defeat in the Soviet-ringed Dortmund/Bielefeld Pocket on the North German Plain. Russian SPETS commandos, dressed in captured American uniforms, have infiltrated NATO lines to sow confusion among Allied troops. Despite being faster than the American planes, Russian MiG-25s and Sukhoi-15s are unable to maintain air superiority over the western Aleutians, due to the upgraded pulse-Doppler look-up, look-down radar on the American F-16 Falcons and the advanced AN/AWG-9 weapon control system on the F-14 Tomcats. With the war turning against them, the Russians are readying a submarine offensive against the American West Coast. There is no telling when they will escalate to even more dangerous tactics...including nuclear weapons. On every front, the war that once seemed impossible blazes its now inevitable path of worldwide destruction. There is no way to know how it will end.
