I got a few of these!  Got 'em from my Father, and from around the area.  
Hard to find nowadays.

J.A.K.E., and he was in the Pacific during WWII.   Looking around, I can't 
seem to find 'em at the moment...  But...  Eh, when I do...

I can't recall, but I have that issue I believe...  Now if only I could find 
'em.  Never able to do so when you want to, always run into 'em when you 
don't.

Never mind, found 'em!  J.A.K.E. = "Jungle Automatic Killer Experiment", an 
Robotic Marine.  I remembered wrong, he died fighting the Robotic 
Atlanteans...  J.A.K.E. 2 might have died for the soldier...  Anyhow, 
they're a cool series, and I highly suggest 'em!  And they got the "Creature 
Commandos" a series that DC tried to bring back recently!!!

If you can find some of these books, I highly suggest 'em!  If not...  Sob 
in your beer, fellows, for you're missing out on a good thing.  :-)
