Painted cover by Allen Anderson. Stories and art by Dan De Carlo, Rudy Lapick, Henry Sharp, Mike Sekowsky, Harry Anderson and Irv Novick. Sometimes listed as GI Joe #3. Neither a tie-in with the later toy line/cartoon nor a grim war comic, this first-gen GI Joe focused on lighthearted tales of military life. The Yardbirds, featuring Pvts. Windy and Whitey, was straight-up comedy of the Beetle Bailey/Sad Sack variety. Joe and the Sarge get crosswise with black marketers. Pvts. Windy and Whitey are led into trouble by a woman who looks like Betty Cooper's older sister, in a story by future Archie legend Dan De Carlo. Joe and the Sarge are captured by Communist guerillas, but luckily, the woman called Lotus is on their side. Plus one-pagers on Glider Artillery and Infantry Weapons. How the Glider Artillery Fights; The Gorilla Man; Situation Normal; House by House; The Two Yardbirds: On Pass; The 24th Infantry Division; The Nursemaids; Infantry Weapons; The Patrol; Good Soldiers Always Win! 48 pages, Full Color.
