Combat Kelly's are tough to find in higher grade... i never really liked their covers that much compared to other Atlas war covers ...

Every now and then you come across a decent copy...

First appearance of Combat Casey:

While a lot of the classic covers posted are "keys" in the modern sense of being among the most desirable due to the cover image, this is one of the few keys in the traditional sense of first appearances. Combat Casey, while a fun read with some great R.Q. Sale art, may not be Sgt. Rock or Sgt. Fury level important, and was pre-dated by a year by Combat Kelly, he deserves at least as much respect as some of the second tier DC war series like Gunner & Sarge or Johnny Cloud, as his own series lasted 29 issues.

Marines in Battle 1 would be a key book in my mind Heath cover is a plus
