Soldier and Marine Comics #11

Army private John Drummond lands with the first wave on a Red-held Korean beach in 1954, and after the initial bombardment proves devastatingly effective, he presses inland through the jungle—confident the real fighting is behind him. But a lone enemy sniper, chained to his post by a fanatic commissar and hidden high in the trees, has other plans. As bullets suddenly crack around him, Drummond must use his training and nerve to hunt down this "bird of prey" before the sniper's next shot finds its mark.

Six green soldiers disembark in Korea ready for combat, but none of them can know that one among them will soon face the ultimate test of courage—and emerge from the fighting north of the 38th parallel forever changed. As Sergeant Connors leads his men toward the front, they'll confront not just enemy fire, but the terror and doubt that comes with facing death for the first time. Watch as one soldier discovers what it truly takes to become a hero.

During the Korean War, medical corpsman Bob Rush finds himself behind enemy lines after following wounded soldiers deep into combat—and then discovers his unit is trapped and hopelessly outnumbered by forces led by General Pu-Yi. When the Communists offer a deadly bargain—spare the American soldiers if Rush can keep their wounded general alive until dawn—the young medic must bluff his way through a medical emergency he's not trained to handle, armed with little more than sulphanilamide powder, aspirin, and pure nerve. As the hours tick toward rescue, Rush races against the clock and his own limitations to keep Pu-Yi breathing long enough for reinforcements to arrive.
