- Genre

- Pat Parker [Girl Commando]; Admiral Varing
- Synopsis
- Pat Parker, a senior nurse working with her team in Malta, dons the costume of Girl Commando and pursues the enemy aboard a submarine.
Keith Chandler : A previous indexer sugeested Jill Elgin as artist, but, by comparison with the signed Parker story in issue #24, this is more likely to be Barbara Hall. In a possible red herring, the final panel has a male artist sitting at his easel and addressing the readers, advising them to discover the story development in the next issue.
