All-American Men of War #110

In "The Co-Pilot Was Death!", Johnny and Silent Bear, a new pilot from the reservation, find themselves captured by Nazis after a crash landing. With the enemy planning to destroy an American radar station, the two must lead a desperate revolt among the POWs, seize a German plane, and fly it into danger—only for Silent Bear to be mortally wounded. As Johnny struggles to keep the plane aloft, he feels the ghost of his rival guiding him through the final moments, steering them toward salvation.

In World War I, twin brothers join a flying squadron only to be separated by their commander, who fears their uncanny luck. Despite the split, they each down enemy planes at the same moment, crash together, and are captured by Germans—only to escape using flare guns and a waiting aircraft. Flying in tandem, they destroy their own squad before returning home, where one brother’s reunion with a nurse takes an unexpected turn.
