For everyone in Britain, these were the darkest days of the Second World War. Our army, or what was left of it, had been withdrawn from France via the beaches of Dunkirk, disabling and abandoning arms and equipment during the desperate evacuation. While they reorganised and re-equipped there was no effective fighting force to stand against Hitler’s Wehrmacht should they choose to invade. Crossing the channel with an invasion fleet was, however, not an operation to be contemplated without complete control of the sky, otherwise the transports and landing craft would be blown out of the water by the RAF. a b Hastings, Rob (9 August 2011). "50 years of war: Adaptable 'Commando' comic still going strong". Independent . Retrieved 27 June 2016. Vooral het tweede deel over de guerillaoorlog die hij onder bevel van Jan Smuts voerde, op weg en in de Kaapkolonie, geeft de hopeloze zaak van de Boeren goed weer. Uitsluitend de bijna 18e eeuwse bereidheid van Reitz en zijn maten om enorme ontberingen te ondergaan van het leven in het "velt", in de openlucht, met alleen een paard, een Mausergeweer en een dunne deken om onder te slapen, maakt dat de Boerenkommando's lange tijd konden blijven opereren en de Boeren weliswaar de militaire kant van de strijd verloren, maar aan de publicitaire kant punten scoorden. De oorlog werd zo verloren, de vrede en een 'eigen' Zuid Afrika uiteindelijk gewonnen. Het is dat wij weten hoe Zuid Afrika na de Tweede Wereldoorlog de Apartheid in is gegaan om het boek niet een veel mooier einde te geven. Manuel Benet Blanes (credited as Manuel Benet), an artist from Spain, is one of the most prolific of current artists on Commando, having illustrated the covers and interiors of hundreds of issues. Containing The Dirty Dozen, True Brit, All Guns Blazing and the very first issue of Commando – Walk or Die!Where else could you come across titles like ‘Desert Fox’, ‘They Flew By Night’, ‘Sea Strike’, ‘The Death Or Glory Mob’ or ‘Zero Smasher’? And where else could you go into action alongside a British army sergeant hunting down a German tank with only his Tommy gun and a couple of grenades . . . or the Lancaster pilot who knew no fear until he was put behind the controls of an aircraft that was jinxed?

Commando: A Boer Journal Of The Boer War - Goodreads

Andrew Knighton, an author of speculative and historical fiction, began writing for Commando in 2018 and has created several stories set in historical eras such as the Napoleonic Wars and medieval period. At the end, one side had to accept that its country had been taken from it by superior force, rather than continue a war that would lead to its extinction. Of course many nations have had to accept that an imperfect peace is better than continuing a war. ''Endure the unendurable'' is what the Emperor said.

Containing 10 issues: Operation Firebrand!, Half-Pint Commando, Terror Team, The Iron Sergeant, Time of Terror, The Mad Major, Spring the Trap, A Born Leader, Marked Man, Ten Tough Paratroopers. Handle this bumper book of the best of Commando war stories with care. Features stories such as “Desert Fox”, “They Flew by Night”, “Sea Strike”, “The Death or Glory Mob”, Zero Smasher”. Where else could you go into action alongside a British army sergeant hunting down a Jerry tank with only his Tommy gun and a couple of grenades… or the Lancaster pilot who knew no fear until he was put behind the controls of a bomber that was jinxed. You can read about all these ordinary men turned into heroes and their stories for yourself. This is an autobiographical work of Mr. Reitz’s time in the commandoes during the last of the Boer Wars. The author limited the scope of this work to the actual war and only referenced his antebellum life in the first chapter or in passing in later chapters. This was a refreshing change from some modern autobiographies of war that spend large portions of the book discussing life before the war service is ever discussed. Evocatively titled stories such as ‘The Fighting Few’, ‘Bright Blade of Courage’, ‘Flak Fever’ and ‘Fight or Die!’ show fearless Tommies in their finest hours, giving a good honest drubbing to fanatical foes from all the Axis countries. Here’s a list of published Commando collections, which we’ll endeavour to update as new books are released.
