During the events of Zone Troopers (1985) played by Biff Manard
Somewhere in Italy in 1944, Dolan takes a photograph of Joey and Mittens and then introduces himself to them. Dolan then walks over to The Sarge and introduces himself. A platoon of Nazi soldiers crests a hill and starts shooting at the squad of American soldiers. While running to the woods with Joey, Mittens and Dolan, The Radioman is shot in the back and killed. The Sarge then circles around the Nazis and kills them. As he is walking towards the others, he appears to be shot, but miraculously survives and kills the Nazi who shot him. Joey tells The Sarge he thought he was surely dead and when Dolan brings up the myth of The Sarge's invincibility, The Sarge says the myth is fake. They are suddenly attacked by a mortar group and The Alien uses a device to vaporize a large tree branch that is about to fall on them. They take shelter in a building for the night and while Joey is on watch, he walks back into the shelter and puts his Fantastic Fiction magazine in the campfire. In the morning, Joey asks Dolan if he has known many soldiers that have gone crazy from battlefield stress and then tells him about what he saw last night. Dolan tells Joey he probably saw a moose and Mittens tells Joey he saw a deer while he was on watch. Dolan convinces Mittens to take him to where he saw the deer. Dolan and Mittens crest a hill and see an S.S. camp. Dolan wants to investigate, but Mittens refuses to go. Dolan then tells Mittens he is going to go pee. Dolan sneaks into the S.S. camp and sees drawings of an alien spacecraft and thinks it is a Nazi secret weapon. He is discovered by an S.S. Radioman who is then shot by Mittens. An S.S. Motorcyclist and his passenger arrive and Dolan is shot in the shoulder. Mittens and Dolan are placed inside of a cage surrounded by German Shepherds. An S.S. Sentry comes and pulls Dolan and Mittens out of their cage and they are brought for questioning to Col. Manheim. Mittens is beaten by S.S. SGT. Zeller for not answering questions. Manheim is brought to the cage holding The Alien and is shown how it is cocooned. Dolan is then brought to its cage and Manheim demands to know what he knows about The Alien. The Fuhrer arrives and is shown The Alien and as The Fuhrer is laughing in front of Mittens, Mittens punches him in the face. The Alien is put into a truck and Mittens and Dolan are put back into their cage. Joey shows up wearing an S.S. uniform and tells Dolan and Mittens, The Sarge has a plan to rescue them. Zeller walks up to Joey and Joey knocks him unconscious. Manheim sees Zeller and initiates an alarm. Joey, Mittens and Dolan get into the truck holding The Alien and driven by The Sarge and they escape from the S.S. camp and also kill Zeller. A nazi fires a rocket at the vehicle, but The Alien uses a device to create a force field and Joey thanks The Alien. The Sarge parks the truck and has Mittens disable it. They find a tomb and hide inside of it for the night. The Sarge tells Dolan to take a walk with him and asks him what agency sent him, but Dolan tells him he was sent to to do a story about him, because the rumors that he can't die. The next morning they discover The Alien missing and head towards the crashed rocket ship. They arrive and find another spaceship landed. The Zone Trooper Captain, The Alien and three more Zone Troopers walk towards the spaceship. The Alien shakes Joey's hand and then walks onto the spaceship with the others. Suddenly a Nazi tank enters the clearing and as Joey goes to help The Alien, the tank fires a round and Joey is hit. The Alien then uses a device to evaporate the tank. The Sarge runs to Joey and before dying, Joey asks Dolan to write about their story. They bury Joey. Dolan tells The Sarge that a Nazi platoon is heading in their direction. The Sarge asks the Zone Trooper Captain for help, but he tells him they will not help them. The Sarge, Mittens and Dolan ambush the Nazis, but they run out of ammunition. The Sarge holds up a white flag and asks to surrender to Manheim. Manheim offers to allow The Sarge and his men back to Allied lines if The Sarge takes the Nazis to the aliens and The Sarge agrees. As they are about to shake hands, The Sarge shoves a grenade into Manheim's jacket. The grenade explodes killing Manheim and The Sarge falls to the ground. Mittens and Dolare are about to be killed when the Nazis start to evaporate. The Alien runs to them and brings them two laser guns and they kill the Nazis with the help of the Zone Trooper Captain and the other Zone Troopers. The Alien and the Zone Troopers leave, but before they do, Mittens shows Dolan the Kilroy was Here scribble he drew on their spaceship. Dolan tells Mittens he can't write about their story, because no one would believe it and Mittens suggests writing it for one of the magazines Joey liked to read. Suddenly a person appears and he reveals himself to be The Sarge, alive and well. It is later shown that Dolan's story made it into Fantastic Fiction.
