In "Up a Tree," Sarge faces a familiar military conundrum: finish Captain Scabbard's report or grab lunch—naturally, he chooses the mess hall. Back for seconds, he spins a surprisingly dramatic tale about a past diet that sounds more like a wartime ordeal than a meal plan. With Bob Gustafson handling every aspect of the art and storytelling, this 1980 classic captures the absurdity of military life with a side of comedic self-seriousness, all wrapped in a cover by Gustafson that perfectly mirrors the issue’s lighthearted chaos.

But when General Halftrack shows up and decides the perch is too perfect to pass up, the joke—and the hierarchy—take a sudden, leafy turn.
