Army War Heroes #15
"Tank Terror!" depicts a World War II engagement where American forces, including a Jeep driver with wounded men, confront a German T-34 tank near Ste. Gervaise, with a reconnaissance plane providing air support to help locate and neutralize the enemy armored threat. The second story presented shows the Korean War battle for Bloody Ridge in August 1951, where over 1,000 Republic of Korea soldiers died defending the strategic peak against attacks by the North Korean People's Army and Chinese Communist forces, with the position ultimately being captured and then recaptured by UN forces two days later.
