Colonel Tobin’s Private
Army #7: “The Garonsky Missile” by Alan Caillou. Colonel Matt Tobin was killed
in battle during the last private war, and what’s left of the private army has
drifted away. Major Paul Tobin, the colonel’s son, is living in California when
an airline stewardess comes to his farm with news that Clara Abbyad, an Israeli
female agent he worked with once, is in Cambodia en route to meet up with
General Quong Trek, a ruthless military leader that kills and tortures people
he doesn’t trust, or who don’t please him. Paul, afraid for her life, calls in
Pamela George to find some of his men for a rescue mission. Soon he leads a
handful of men, including a couple new soldiers, into Cambodia to find and
rescue the girl. The final plot is weak, and though the do rescue the girl and
kill the general, there isn’t much else accomplished. Besides Clara and Pamela,
Paul Tobin, Rick Meyers and Cass Fragonard are all that’s left of the old crew.
Two new men are brought in, Seth Karem and a pilot named Bob Fellowes. It was
time the series came to an end.
