STORY DETAILS
Synopsis: Story of an unambitious Marine ("Pinky") who is seen as lazy or a loser until all of his squad mates are pinned down or wounded in the invasion of an unspecified island late in the war, at which point he takes over, saves them, and holds the position. After which he is transferred, and all the others who turned out to be less brave than they thought spend their lives wondering what happened to them. In the last panel they decide to publish their story to see if it turns up their old friend.
Pages: 5.000
Script: Joe Gill ?
Pencils: Bill Molno
Inks: Vince Alascia
Letters: Jon D'Agostino
Notes: Alascia inks per Nick Caputo. Previous indexer credited Bill Molno. The middle of the story becomes almost incomprehensible. Between pages three and four the characters go from advancing in line with the rest of their company to being cut off in a position so isolated that Pinky has to run a gauntlet of fire to carry the wounded back to the main lines. Later, an ambiguously written sentence seems to suggest that the protagonists are soldiers, not Marines.
