Don Winslow of the Navy #42
In "Toguchi's Escape," a small child's accidental release of a glider's brake sends the aircraft hurtling toward danger—only Captain Tootsie’s quick reflexes and strength save the day as he grabs the tow rope and pulls the glider back down. Penciled by C. C. Beck and inked by Pete Costanza, this 1947 adventure from Fawcett’s Don Winslow of the Navy series blends wartime tension with lighthearted heroics, all captured in the classic style of the era.
