G.I. Combat #34 (1956)

Sergeant "Wild Bill" Walton and his battered M-4 tank, Gertie, lead a desperate assault through the treacherous Rang-Jam Pass, where they face entrenched enemy forces and a terrifying new threat: the massive Soviet-built "Glorious Comrade" tank. As the battle rages and the odds stack against them, Bill devises a daring plan to confront the enemy behemoth head-on, using Gertie’s last remaining strength and a hidden cache of supplies to even the odds.

Private Jim Cregar, haunted by a past fear of heights from a disastrous circus accident, finds himself trapped on a cliffside with his squad during a Korean War ambush, paralyzed by the same dread that once broke his spirit. When the enemy prepares to blow the mountain, Cregar must confront his phobia not for himself, but to carry his sergeant across a narrow wire to safety, proving that courage can be found not in the absence of fear, but in facing it for others.

In the midst of a brutal Korean War campaign, a lone corporal, haunted by the ambush that wounded his friend, volunteers for a near-suicidal mission to sabotage a heavily guarded red train line supplying enemy forces. As he slips through enemy territory, evading patrols and exploiting their paranoia, he faces a series of tense traps and close calls—each one a step closer to the explosive climax.

PFC. Mitch Slocum, a grumbling infantryman, resents the glory his air force counterparts receive while he endures the mud and danger of the front lines. When he’s given the chance to ride along on a bombing mission with pilot Lieutenant Carter, he’s forced to confront the brutal reality of aerial combat—where danger, fear, and sacrifice are just as real, if not more so, than on the ground.
