Fightin' Marines #28

The lead story "7000 Japs—And Me!" depicts a Marine recounting his desperate solo survival after being separated from his unit on an island 300 miles from the nearest American forces, where he engaged in his own private war against Japanese soldiers. A second story shows three Marines advancing south for ammunition under heavy enemy fire, with one soldier named Keely enduring a harrowing journey across dangerous terrain while his comrades attempt to provide covering support. The issue also includes instructional text on Marine Corps training covering topics such as boot camp orientation, physical fitness, rifle marksmanship, and field operations.
