My favorite cover in this run. I know there was a thread about what you would over pay for at one time. Well in my opinion I over paid for this and happy I did. CGC has only graded 4 copies and this 7.0 is still the second highest graded. Oh and Heath is a war master just under Kubert in my opinion. |

I used to have a lot more DC war titles, but I've sold many of them off over the years. Whenever I'm at a show or con, I will sometimes pick up a copy if it can be had for cheap. Got this one last year for a few bucks and it's in very nice shape. I'm pretty sure I never had any Star Spangled War Stories in my original collection and I'm unfamiliar with the Unknown Soldier story line. I was more of a Sgt. Rock and Haunted Tank fan back in the day. |

| @Foghorn_Sam Yell Yes Rock and haunted Tank are the bomb. I also really like the Enemy Ace stories. They my actually be my favorite, although if you were to count up the books Enemy Ace was in and not a reprint it may only be a couple of dozen issues | ||

| That's an awful nice looking 4.5 there. What held it back? Oh wait, I forgot, I can look up the grader notes myself with CBCS books, except I can't make out the serial number from the image. |
