Marvel Comics: Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos King Size Special Annual Vol. 1 #1 (1965)
"Commission in Korea!"
During the Korean War, The Howling Commandos are called together again to perform one more mission, to blow up one of the Korean MiG bases. "Happy Sam" Sawyer, who by now has advanced to Colonel, accompanies the team, much to the dismay of Nick Fury, who feels that Sawyer is too old for field missions. During the mission, Sawyer gets separated from the unit, but is saved just in time. At the end of the mission, Sawyer awards Nick Fury with a battlefield commission to 2nd Lieutenant, finally turning him into a commissioned officer.
Roll out, Howlers! It's the quintessential Marvel military comic as roughneck Sergeant Nick Fury leads his wild team squad of Howling Commandos against the nastiest bad guys Hitler and his cronies have to offer in the trenches of World War II.
