Our Army at War #241 (1972) page 6 by Heath

"War Story" by Robert Kanigher, February 1972.

I bought this comic, read it as a kid, and still have it.

Famous newspaper reporter Ernie Patterson -- a doppelgänger for the famous GI Joe reporter Ernie Pyle -- tags along with Sgt. Rock and Easy Company on their patrol but witnesses many tragic losses.

In the next page, a sniper kills Tony as he sits on the throne for the reporter to take his picture.

At the end the reporter tosses aside his "War Story" notebook. Wind blows across blank pages to a single sentence, "War is hell!"
