Navy comic books issue 40

Stories and art by Tom McNamara and Victor Pazmino. During the 1940s, military hero Don Winslow was the star of a comic strip, a movie serial and a popular radio show in addition to this Fawcett comic. Don and Red seek a missing medical shipment on the island of Java and once again get captured by hostile natives. In a story from WWII, Don escorts a medicine shipment to an Allied military commander on an Axis-held island. As the cover advises, these issues feature "official war stories from Don Winslow's Log Book," as he, like other wartime heroes, had to explain the continued reliance on WWII stories after the war was over.
