Our Army at War #43

A determined U.S. Army soldier dominates this February 1956 cover, gripping his weapon with one hand while clutching what appears to be a detonator in the other — all amid a burst of explosive sparks near a marked crate, with a Nazi-emblazoned structure looming in the shadowy background. Jerry Grandenetti's cover art crackles with tension, perfectly setting the stage for the featured story, "A Bridge for Billie!," and the other battle-action tales promised inside. Written by Robert Kanigher, this is DC's war anthology firing on all cylinders at a dime a copy.
