Monty Hall of the U.S. Marines #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeMonty Hall and his Marine unit discover that enemy soldiers have infiltrated their lines near South Korea and must rescue patients believed to be South Koreans from a hospital; they devise a plan to knock over a tank to lower a bridge and escape. The issue includes an extra feature titled "Pin-Up Pete," which humorously describes a Marine named Pete who has courted beautiful girls across multiple locations and whose name has become synonymous with romance and full moons, before settling into a foxhole where he relaxes with his buddies.
Monty Hall and the Girl Photographer follows a war correspondent, Miranda (Randy) Bailey, as she arrives at the front lines in Korea, much to the dismay of Marines Monty Hall, Tex, and Canarsie, who are assigned to protect her during an amphibious landing. As the trio struggles to keep up with her relentless pace and unorthodox methods, they find themselves caught in a series of chaotic and dangerous situations—from jammed jeeps to sniper fire—while trying to balance her desire to document the war with their duty to keep her safe.
Tex, a Marine at a rest camp, becomes determined to tame a wild Chinese Mongolian pony he spots nearby, despite warnings from his buddy Canarsie. His attempt to break the horse in using makeshift methods leads to a chaotic and comically disastrous ride that ends with the horse—whom they jokingly name "Major"—accidentally ending up in the nurses’ quarters.
