Our Army at War #49

From DC's dependable mid-1950s war anthology comes this August 1956 issue of Our Army at War, featuring a gripping Joe Kubert cover (inked by Kubert and Jack Adler) that puts you right in the thick of a beach assault — a helmeted soldier firing a flamethrower in the foreground while an enemy vessel and bursting explosions fill the chaotic background. The banner promises a "Gigantic Contest" with 5,000 prizes, adding a fun period flavor to the package. Inside, Robert Kanigher writes and Ross Andru and Mike Esposito illustrate the lead tale "Landing Postponed!" alongside other battle-action stories that deliver exactly the tense, front-line drama this series was built on.
