In "The Last Medal!", a young World War I pilot grapples with the grim reality that new flyers rarely survive their first 14 days in combat. Armed only with a calendar he’s marked in his cockpit and the quiet support of his wingmen, he pushes through relentless dogfights, haunted by the ticking clock—until he discovers the 14th day was secretly crossed out by his captain all along. Written by Bob Haney and brought to life with dynamic art by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito, this gripping tale captures the weight of fear, trust, and unexpected courage. The cover by Jerry Grandenetti perfectly captures the tension of the moment.

In the trenches of WWI, a rookie flyer faces the grim reality that new pilots rarely survive their first 14 days in the sky. Armed only with a calendar he’s posted in his cockpit and the quiet support of his wingmen, he endures relentless dogfights, each day a battle against fear—until the 14th passes, and the date is already crossed out. The truth, revealed only after a hard-won victory, is that his captain had secretly erased the deadline all along.
