Synopsis for "Invasion of the Killer Beasts"

In Berlin, Oberest von Streibel calls forth some of his best men for a mission to invade Camp Lehigh in the United States as the first step in an all out invasion of the United States. To assist them von Striebel gives them the latest creation of Nazi science: Attack dogs that have been biologically engineered to have poison glands in their mouths, making their bites lethal. With these new creatures to use, the Nazi soldiers are smuggled into American waters by U-Boat and swim ashore.

The following day at Camp Lehigh, Steve Rogers and Bucky are relaxing when they are confronted by Sgt. Duffy. Duffy assigns the pair to participate in tank maneuvers for the day much to their dismay. The war games go awry when they find themselves attacked by people with live ammo. Steve and James duck out of their tank and change into Captain America and Bucky to see who is firing upon them. They find the Nazis hiding in the hills and begin fighting them. While Cap and Bucky are occupied with the Nazi forces, one of their number unleashes the poisonous dogs to attack the soldiers. The dogs kill the soldiers and Cap suffers a blow to the head, leading Bucky to believe his mentor to have been killed. As the Nazis retreat from the scene, Bucky follows after them.

Cap wakes up shortly thereafter and examines the dead soldiers and determines that they have been poisoned. Following the tire tracks of the Nazis trucks, Captain America tracks them to Stone Manor Castle. There he hears Bucky's cries for help and comes to his sidekicks aid. Finding Bucky cornered by one of the dogs, but kills it with his shield before it can attack the lad. Cap and Bucky then chase after the Nazis after they have loaded up their truck to attack Camp Lehigh again.

When the Nazis stop to shoot at them, the two heroes beat them into submission and use their own grenades to blow up the truck, killing the dogs and most of the Nazis. A lone Nazi soldier survives and is taken prisoner at Camp Lehigh where he reflects on his defeat while Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes retire for the night.
