The Marine Machine Gunner 😎🙌

Relive the legendary story of Sergeant John Basilone, the first U.S. Marine to receive the Medal of Honor in World War II, brought to life in a striking vintage comic book cover style. Known as “The Marine Machine Gunner,” Basilone’s stand on Guadalcanal, 1942 became one of the most heroic moments of the Pacific War.

For three days, under relentless Japanese attack, Basilone fired his .30 caliber machine guns until the barrels overheated, carried ammunition through enemy fire, and fought hand-to-hand with pistol and machete when the line nearly broke. His incredible courage saved his unit and stopped thousands of enemy troops.

This comic-style tribute captures the courage, grit, and sacrifice of a Marine legend and American war hero. Perfect for fans of WWII history, military heroes, and classic war comics.
