    Many have probably seen this already, but I just saw it for the first time a day ago and had to share it with those who have not. This is probably now one of my most favorite cartoons of the war I have seen.

    Gotta love the Brits!!!!!!! :D

    I hadn't seen that one, Darren. I've always been partial to Bill Mauldin. I still have my father's original copy of This Damn Tree Leaks.

    My understanding is that this one got Mauldin called before Patton.

    I thought I would post a few of the Aleutian cartoons my Grandfather brought back in the book "Windblown and Dripping".
