Our Army at War #277

From the cover by Joe Kubert, a massive gun barrel tilts wildly out of control above a battlefield engulfed in fire and chaos, while Sgt. Rock shouts "Hold it! Easy's knockin' that gun down on our own guys!" — a split-second of desperate command that crackles with tension. Soldiers scatter across the smoke-filled landscape as the enormous weapon threatens to crush the very men it was meant to protect. This February 1975 issue of Our Army at War captures the kind of harrowing, morally charged battlefield moment that made Sgt. Rock one of DC's most compelling wartime figures.
