Army War Heroes #3

This Charlton war title from 1964 puts you right in the heat of combat — the cover by Dick Giordano thrusts you into a tense battlefield scene where helmeted soldiers man a gun emplacement as a massive military truck takes a direct hit, a dramatic explosion erupting across the cover image. The bold cover copy teases "the blazing action saga of P.F.C. Carl Janssen U.S.A.R." in the feature story "Red-Ball Hot-Shot," while the interior promises more gritty action in "Death Walked at Night," crafted by writer Joe Gill with art by Charles Nicholas and inks by Vince Alascia. Solid 1964 Charlton war comics craft at its most earnest.
