Commando 5619 - Achtung, destroyer!

Commando 5641 - Sink the Tiger

The unthinkable has happened —HMAS Tiger has been captured by the Japanese and is being used to create havoc amongst allied shipping! The Australian Navy’s most experienced destroyer commander, John Griffin, is called in to solve the problem, his orders: “SINK THE TIGER!”

Keith's design roughs for Commando 5641

Commando 5671 - Dutch courage

Commando 5677 - Hell on high

They called Lieutenant Robert Lloyd a coward for flying out of formation in his B-17 and blamed him for the death of his crew. He was demoted to co-pilot in another outfit but his new pilot wasn't going to listen to a coward’s advice on flying!

Commando 5687 - Beneath

When the Nazis thundered over Europe, they did not know what horror lay beneath, hungry from the last war. It had tasted human-flesh and it craved more…

Commando 5711 - 3 Company

Three's certainly company with this lot! A soldier, a sailor, and a pilot find themselves stranded on the Dunkirk beaches each blaming the other for their predicament. But they'd soon after to work together to escape the clutches of the Nazis!

Commando 5715 - Steer into danger

The salty seadogs are back for another oceanic adventure in the Pacific as the experienced skippers of HMAS Tiger and HMAS Wombat take on deadly Japanese Cruisers!

Commando 5731 - Leg before Chindits

Major Charles Beevor and his depleted group of Chindits were deep into the jungles of Burma. Cut off by the Japanese, they were out for six and would not stop until the Japanese threat was bowled over!

Commando 5747 - the deadly sun

In 1918, the deadly sun shone down on the desert and blinded Pilot Martin Connors. Out of its rays came a German plane flown by an ace who had already killed three other British pilots!

Commando 5755 - D-day pilot

Commando 5779 - Pressure Point

Commando 5807 - Small but mighty!

Maltese Private George Abela was an artillery gunner on Fort St Elmo and he might have stood at a diminutive five foot two but like Malta and its people, he was tough! And he was about to stop an audacious Italian plan to destroy the Grand Harbour!

Commando 5839 - no surrender!

Egypt, 1942. The war in the desert was as hot as the blazing sun, with the Italians fighting the British in an all‑out battle for supremacy. The Long Range Desert Patrol was an ace in the hand of the Brits, and their raiding parties went behind enemy lines to cut off vital supplies to their Italian opponents.
Little did they know they would soon be fighting shoulder to shoulder for survival against a common enemy – the German Afrika Korps!

Commando 5847 - HMAS Wombat: the duel

The time has come for the crew of HMAS Wombat to strike out on their own adventure! With a Japanese destroyer helmed by Captain Aki Kato causing havoc in the shipping lanes, it falls to Captain John Griffin and his rough and ready crew to save the day once again!But with Kato able to predict all of Griffin’s tricks, the battle for the Pacific soon turns into a duel to end all duels!

Commando 5851 - War-torn!

In 1939, war was declared, sparking six years of devastation known as World War Two. Two brothers, Michel and Hans Weber were torn apart by the conflict — separated and on opposite sides of the fighting, with one in Germany and the other in Canada. They had started the war as brothers — would they end it as enemies or could their bond survive?
