Sounds like a crazy plan to me, but then, being a prisoner in a concentration camp would likely make one willing to take some risk if it meant getting out. Fyi, Peter, just like the previous story, did you notice that the splash page was tightly inked while this page is noticeably looser? Must've been a deadline issue, especially given how many pages he drew in this issue.
Excellent observation about the inking, Rubén! Sam drew all of the interiors during the book's 40-issue run (1961-73)! Fortunately for his work load and unfortunately for money, the book wasn't monthly. It ran every two months and later quarterly, with a few exceptions. He also got work in other Dell and Charlton books, mostly war and some jungle. His DC work first appeared in 1970.
I like that Glanzman is able to get so many faces of ethnicity in there. Nesco has a bold plan. One that could have only come from the cool hand of Paul Newman.
Another really nice page!
Adjusting a plan on the fly in this scenario is nerve wracking! Another nice page of art though and I love love a solid 6-panel layout.
