| Job # | S-900 |
| Genre | War |
| 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. |
| Comic Story | Butterball (7 pages) |
| Synopsis | "Butterball" is the chubby Mess Sergeant, a veteran of Saipan, who--despite his weight--proves not only able to lead his platoon in combat in Korea, but also to win the beautiful nurse. |
| Job # | S-699 |
| Genre | War |
| Script | Joe Gill ? |
| Pencils | Charles Nicholas |
| Inks | Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio |
| Letters | Jon D'Agostino |
| Notes | Nicholas pencils and Mastroserio inks per Nick Caputo. Previous indexers attributed Bill Molno on pencils and Dick Giordano or Sal Trapani on inks. After careful studying of the art Nick is confident that it is Nicholas' figures and poses on pencils and Mastroserio's distinctive inking. |
