Art credits updated to recognize that the Toby original was signed by Mel Keefer. In this reprint Charlton's production staff (probably Dick Giordano) systematically reduced the breast size of Lotta throughout the story, and gave the dream-sequence character Maria a much less revealing outfit.
First page of story says "continued on inside back cover" but it is on the flip side of that page.
Art credits updated to indicate that in both Toby printings of the story the splash panel is signed by Mel Keefer; the Charlton production staff appears to have eradicated this signature. Two changes were made to this story to appease Comics Code Authority censors: (1) the stretcher that Quigley uses on both pages one and four to knock back the North Koreans is eliminated, leaving him looking like he's doing this all with his bare hands; (2) the beautiful female war correspondent on page two has suffered a significant breast reduction.
Multiple changes (aside from the name change) made to this story when Charlton reprinted it in order to satisfy Comics Code Authority censors. These include text changes as from "News Flash! Man-eating idol swallows Marines!" to "News Flash! Marines disappear!"; and illustrations removing the bullets that severely wound a Marine on page six.
Credits updated as per more correct entry in original story. When reprinted Charlton drastically changed this story. The note on page one "A Bloody Saga of War Fury" had the word "Bloody" removed. Throughout the story sound effects and rifle discharges were removed. In the final sequence the Sarge and the Kid now fall off the cliff when they are discovered rather than being shot off the cliff by enemy fire. The largest change, however, is that the "Dear John" letter to the Sarge on the last page is changed from a letter from his wife telling him the divorce is final and his kids have been placed in an institution because her new husband George doesn't want them ... to a letter advising him that his wife died three days before posting and that his kids are in a institution awaiting his return from the war.
