All-American Men of War #115

In "Deliver One Enemy Ace -- Handle with Care!", war-weary soldier Johnny takes a rare two-day leave in London, where a quiet afternoon with Running Deer turns into a poignant encounter with a lost and broken orphan. Written by Robert Kanigher and illustrated by Irv Novick, this powerful story finds Johnny stepping beyond duty to offer hope to a boy who’s given up—proving that courage isn’t just in battle, but in quiet acts of kindness. The cover by Irv Novick captures the emotional weight of the moment with striking detail.
