From the bloody beaches of Normandy to the muddy forests of the Vosges mountains, a cut-off Easy Company will be joined by Johnny Cloud and the Haunted Tank as they battle for their lives behind enemy lines against a force ten times their size.

Based on actual events that have been meticulously researched by writer/artist Billy Tucci, who walked the actual battlefields of France and interviewed the veterans of the campaign, “Sgt. Rock – The Lost Battalion” is a story of heroism and humanity where one small band of men defy all odds to survival while their unlikely saviors sacrifice everything and “Go For Broke” to glory in the Vosges Mountains.
