All-American Men Of War #8 (4.0)

Title: All-American Men Of War
Issue: #8
Publisher: DC
Year: 12/1953
Grade: VG 4.0

Another tight WWII anthology of stand-alone stories. An airborne squad dropped behind enemy lines has to get a radio working under fire to call in artillery; a hard-nosed sergeant breaks in a green replacement during a brutal street-to-street push; a fighter pilot learns to trust his wingman on a dangerous escort run; and Navy frogmen clear a mined harbor ahead of an amphibious landing. One-page “service life” fillers break up the action, keeping the focus on ordinary GIs solving tactical problems with grit and teamwork.
