Contains 7 stories
Mamie's Mortar
6 pp · war
Private Joe BurchLieutenant ParkerSergeant MulvaneySergeant Robert Mamie

Sergeant Robert Mamie takes fierce pride in his 81mm mortar, but when a shell jams in the barrel during a desperate enemy assault, Private Joe Burch must make an impossible choice to keep the gun—and his unit—from being overrun. What unfolds is a story of sacrifice and the grudging respect that can grow between soldiers when it matters most.

Don't Tell Frankie!
6 pp · war
Private GroganFrankie (cook)Private Tuliper

When supply trucks fall victim to enemy fire, "Baker" Company faces a week eating nothing but noodles—and Private Tuliper seems perfectly content with the arrangement, much to cook Frankie's frustration. But when Tuliper's appetite for food (and combat rations) leads him straight into danger during a scouting mission, the hungry G.I. becomes an unlikely hero, forcing Frankie to confront his grudge in the most delicious way possible.

Camouflage Capers
6 pp · humor; war
Sergeant GruffPrivate WhiteyPrivate Windy

When Sergeant Gruff orders Privates Windy and Whitey to camouflage the company area for an important inspection by General Hindsight, the two well-meaning soldiers turn the whole camp into a paint-splattered comedy of errors. As their misguided efforts at camouflage spiral wildly out of control—covering everything from Gruff's own quarters to the General's car—the Yardbirds find themselves in increasingly hot water, scrambling to hide before an angry Sergeant can track them down.

Born in the Saddle
4 pp · pencils ? [as Flip] · inks ? [as Flip]
Private Danny O'LowdSergeant Snear

Private Danny O'Lowd talks a big game about his Texas roots and horseback skills, but when Sergeant Snear volunteers him as a mounted orderly for Colonel Lather—an old cavalry officer who wants to ride at the training camp—the truth comes out: O'Lowd is terrified of horses. What follows is a wild ride through the countryside as O'Lowd and his reluctant mount stumble through one mishap after another, with the Colonel caught in the chaos.

The Sign of the Tigress
7 pp · war
Private Joe BurchLieutenant ParkerSergeant Mulvaney

Sergeant Mulvaney arrives in Seoul on furlough with Private Joe Burch, intent on forgetting his troubles back home—until they stumble into a nightclub called the Sign of the Tigress and spot a mysterious performer named Lilith, who seems to be sending them a coded message through her song. As the two soldiers uncover a red spy operation holding Lilith's sister hostage, Mulvaney discovers that the woman he'd written off as just another complication might be worth reconsidering after all.

The Ol' Hoss Pistol
5 pp · war · script ? [as Sam Daily] (byline)
Sam Daily (Correspondent)Pvt. Ed DoneyPvt. Lew Mace

Pvt. Ed Doney and Pvt. Lew Mace head to Korea carrying a treasured relic—a weathered cavalry pistol passed down from Ed's grandfather—hoping its history of protection will see them through combat. When a dangerous patrol goes wrong and the two soldiers find themselves pinned down with dwindling ammunition, the old weapon becomes far more than a sentimental keepsake. As correspondent Sam Daily reports, this beat-up "peace-maker" will prove its worth in ways neither soldier could have imagined.

Lexy's Glass Eye

Private Joe BurchLieutenant ParkerSergeant MulvaneyPrivate CarpuccioLexy Grey (reporter)

When a mysterious Red lookout post pins down Baker Company for five days straight, their frustration reaches a breaking point—until reporter Lexy Grey arrives to document the men's bravery through her camera lens. What starts as a risky assignment becomes a desperate hunt when Grey ventures out on her own hunch, and her photographs reveal something the military's own intelligence couldn't: the camouflaged antenna hiding in plain sight. Through the glass eye of her camera, this fearless photographer may be the key to silencing the phantom spotter's nest once and for all.
