Fightin' Navy #127

Charlton's long-running war anthology surfaces with Fightin' Navy #127, featuring a tense underwater struggle between two combat divers locked in close combat beside a naval mine — with a caption grimly noting that hitting it too hard means the war ends for both of them. Dick Giordano's cover pencils and inks bring real urgency to the deep-sea confrontation, all bubbles and churning green water. Inside, Joe Gill writes and Bill Montes and Ernie Bache illustrate, including the story "The Hero of Midway" — solid creative firepower for any fan of military comics from 1983.
