Synopsis for The War that Time Forgot: "The Volcano of Monsters!"
The Flying Boots are assigned to find and destroy a Japanese secret weapon that has been blowing US airplanes out of the sky. Taken out into drop plane, they are dropped over Dinosaur Island and are instantly attacked by a Pterodactyl. They kill the beast by tossing grenades at the creature before deploying their parachutes and landing safely on the ground.
They are soon chased by a Tyrannosaurus Rex, but manage to out run it by scrambling into the jungle. There they are attacked by a Brontosaurus, which they manage to kill using a combination of their acrobatic skills and grenades. Knocked out a tree by another prehistoric monster, the Flying Boots land in the water and hitch a ride on another Dinosaur. The creature leads them back to the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the two end up battling each other near a cave. Scrambling inside, the group finds a cache of Japanese missiles.
Ironically enough, the thing they have come to destroy ends up being their means of escape from Dinosaur Island. Strapping themselves to the missiles, they set them to launch harmlessly into the sky and then free fall away from the island using their parachutes to land safely at sea to be picked up by their recon plane.
