Issue Description
On the morning of the 28 June 1914, two pistol shots fired in a Sarajevo street plunged the world into war and pitched men of all nations against one another.
For centuries men had battled for martial supremacy on the ground but now, after four years of war, they had taken their battles to the air. In the sky over Flanders, two of these new gladiators held the fate of many, many men in their gauntleted hands. Would those below live…or die?
Introduction
As a tribute to those who served during the years 1914-1918 - on the Home Front or at Front Line - Commando has produced a series of stories of characters caught up in the tumult of the First World War. None of them are real people but we'd like to think that the experiences they have will not be a million miles from what actually happened to so many.
Last month, our heroes were struggling with the desert's heat, this month the focus of the story is the cold, clammy mud of Flanders and the impact that the new aircraft had on the men struggling to fight, to even survive, below them.
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 Clash At Cambrai, Commando No 4755
