Battlefield Action #55
This anthology issue contains two war stories. "The Little Finger Man" depicts a Korean child who has developed an uncanny instinct for finding beautiful American soldiers, leading soldiers to share their good fortune with him. "The Invincible Japanese" recounts the Battle of Guadalcanal in August 1942, where American Marines initially suffered defeats before learning that Japanese forces, despite their reputation, were not invincible, ultimately leading to the empire's downfall. The third story shown depicts French and German forces engaged in bridge demolition and sabotage operations during World War II.
