Wings Comics #12

Tom and Akeley volunteer for a perilous solo bombing run against a munitions plant near Berlin, but their comrades refuse to let them fly in alone—instead setting up a daring rescue rendezvous outside the city for 4:00 AM. What unfolds is a nail-biting race through enemy territory as the two pilots navigate crashes, Nazi patrols, and a sabotage operation, all while their teammates wait in the dark, ready to pull them out if they can make it back alive.

The Skull Squad races toward home and their next perilous assignment.
