History of "Fighting Army" Comics and Vietnam War Imagery "Fighting Army" comics, published by Charlton Comics from 1956 to 1984, chronicled U.S. Army exploits in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam with raw, dramatic art. Issue #12 (December 1966), with cover art by Charles Nicholas, depicts a soldier in a green beret consoling a child amid war's devastation, titled "The Bully!" It reflects the era's propaganda and human cost, portraying the moral complexities of combat during the escalating Vietnam War, which saw over 58,000 American casualties. These comics honored soldiers' valor while questioning the conflict's toll on innocents. This t-shirt, inspired by that iconic cover, pays tribute to the Fighting Army's legacy and the enduring spirit of those who served.
"Cong" is a slang abbreviation for "Viet Cong," the communist guerrilla fighters and political organization that battled U.S. and South Vietnamese forces during the Vietnam War from 1954 to 1975. In one sentence: The Viet Cong, formally the National Liberation Front, emerged in 1960 as a guerrilla army in South Vietnam, supported by North Vietnam and the Soviet Union, conducting ambushes, booby traps, and terror tactics that contributed to over 58,000 American deaths before their defeat in 1975 led to Vietnam's unification under communism.
