This issue contains two main stories. "The Wild Tiger Hunt" follows Monty Hall and fellow Marines as they prepare to hunt a savage tiger attacking livestock and threatening villagers in a South Korean mountain village, with Monty receiving permission from his commanding officer to attempt the dangerous mission. In a second story, a man named Leatherneck becomes boss of a criminal operation and uses his store as a front, but rival gangsters close in on him as he tries to evade capture and ultimately calls in the riot squad to handle the situation.

Canarsie, a Marine on shore leave in Brooklyn, stumbles into trouble when mobsters try to force an honest cigar-store owner named Jud Worth into helping them smuggle diamonds and perfumes—and when Jud disappears after reporting the scheme, Canarsie takes matters into his own hands to track down the ringleader, Nick Staley. With the help of a U.S. Customs agent who's been investigating the smuggling ring, Canarsie sets out to rescue Jud and shut down the operation before it's too late.
