“Outsmarted”

In "Outsmarted," Sadie and Gertie man the night shift at Supply while the Sarge heads off to her quarters to catch her favorite show—only to call back in a panic, claiming her power’s out. Mishearing “fuse” as “shoes,” Sadie dutifully delivers a box of size 12 footwear to the irate Sgt. Blast, sparking a classic case of comedic misunderstanding. Written and drawn by Paul McCarthy, with a cover by George Baker, this 1961 Harvey classic captures the absurdity of military life with a perfectly timed mix of confusion and chuckles.

Sadie and Gertie are working night-shift in Supply and the Sarge leaves early for her quarters to watch TV. When Sarge calls the supply hut and asks for a 'fuse' because her power is out and can't watch TV, Sadie thinks she said 'shoes' and brings a box of size 12 shoes to an irate Sgt. Blast.
