Issue Description
On the morning of the 28 June 1914, two pistol shots fired in a Sarajevo street had plunged the world into war and pitched men of all nations against one another. In the world's first truly global conflict soldiers, sailors and airmen found themselves fighting in far-flung battlefields.

Attack In Arabia
Introduction
As a tribute to those who served during the years 1914-1918 - on land, sea or in the air; at home or abroad - Commando is producing stories of characters caught up in the tumult of the First World War. None of author George Low's inventions are real people but we'd like to think that the experiences he has imagined for you will not be far away from what actually happened to so many.
Last month, the miners of Messines were deep below the earth digging their way towards enemy lines. Other British soldiers, though, fought under the blazing sun of the Middle East where the land was as much an enemy as the soldiers of the Ottoman Empire who they faced.
I hope you enjoy this and the other stories in the series as much as we have.
Calum Laird, Commando Editor
The series continues in four weeks with In Flanders Skies…Commando No 4747
