Tell It to the Marines #11
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe issue contains two stories: "Panther Patrol," which depicts Marines in combat against enemy forces, featuring intense action sequences with explosions and tactical engagements; and "The Bull Session" by Jay Benton, a longer narrative set in a Mexican town where three U.S. Marines named Monty, Tex, and Canarsie become involved in a bullfighting challenge after a local matador is injured, with the story following their attempts to participate in the fierce bull fight despite their inexperience and mounting complications during the event.
Lieutenant Benton recounts the story of Major Wilson—the squadron leader his Panther jet pilots mockingly dubbed "Worry-Wart" for his endless personal troubles—and how a dangerous bombing run over Korea revealed the true measure of the man they'd underestimated. Caught between enemy flak, MiGs, and their own wavering resolve, the squadron must follow Wilson's lead as the mission spirals into chaos. It's a portrait of quiet courage that redefines what it means to be tough.
Jeb Buckley Jr. joins the Marines hoping to escape the shadow of his legendary father, only to find himself struggling with fear and self-doubt when his unit faces real combat. When a dangerous patrol goes sideways and his squad is captured by enemy forces, Jeb must confront what courage actually means—and discover whether he has it in him.
