Year: 02/1953
Grade: VG 4.0

An all-WWII anthology built around four shorts:

• “Operation Davy Jones” – A GI team uses a rigged, semi-submersible jeep to sneak under a pier and blow a key rail line, slipping past dockside sentries and searchlights.

• “Jap Hunt” (period story title) – Jungle patrols on a Pacific island play cat-and-mouse with concealed snipers and booby traps until a clever flank breaks the stalemate.

• “Commando Sad Sack” – A hapless-looking commando keeps bungling…until his unorthodox moves accidentally set up the perfect sabotage, proving he’s tougher than he seems.

• “Sentries Never Sleep” – A nighttime post thwarts infiltrators by trusting routine, discipline, and sharp ears more than heroics.
