G.I. Combat #137

Crossing the desert, the crew rescue a boy named Ali from thieves. He promises to repay them someday. Later they shoot down a German plane attacking a British fighter plane. The pilot warms of a Nazi poison gas dump that must be blown... and dies. The tankers take the mission, but in blowing the dump are all blinded by magnesium flares. Ali arrives and leads them to safety, and even directs a brawl with Nazi storm troopers, winning the day.
