Escaping Japanese forces, their glider is hooked aloft, drifts through fog, and lands back on Dinosaur Island. They fight dinosaurs, see the Ape dead on the river bottom, but are rescued by his son! The Ape fights off dinosaurs and launches their glider aloft to be rescued. They sleep - and dream "of a strange Great White Ape who like humans instead of dinosaurs!"

Character(s): Major Ben Wade; Billy Wade; North Korean Colonel Kim; pilots
Synopsis: Korean War... Major Ben Wade is a hotshot pilot tasked with destroying a dam in a ravine. NK Colonel Kim plots... Wade is shot down, captured, and brainwashed as a puppet to destroy his own squad. Flying, he fights the brainwashing amidst a G-pull "grayout". He shoots down his own brother and lies to command. But days later he leads the attack and destroys the dam. Still, he killed his own brother. Not so, that ploy was fixed to fool the enemy. Billy is alive: a shock to snap him out of it. But the "grayout" had already washed out the brainwashing.
