Description
Dog Tag is a journey through World War II that uses one soldier’s lived experience to confront the myth of glory in war and honor the quiet heroism of those who endured it as only writer Mark Russell and artist PJ Holden could tell it.
Dog Tag is a fictional story about a very real war. It follows the life and thoughts of Corporal Tom Fuller through the final year of World War II as his service takes him from the invasion of Normandy to the surrender of Japan. Borrowed from real world stories and little known events of the war, Dog Tag asks big questions about the war while focusing on the heroism of the ordinary people who lived and died during the conflict.
