Commando #5475: The Tygrys

by Colin Maxwell, Ian Kennedy (Cover Art), Morhain (Artist)

The ORP Tygrys, or Tiger, was a Polish submarine outclassed by Poland's modern subs, but its Commander, Leopold Swirski, was proud of the ship and his crew. Then September 1st, 1939 came, the Tiger bared its teeth and growled at the invading Nazi hordes. The sub fought tooth and nail to protect its homeland but took too much damage. Licking its wounds, the Tiger and its crew were forced to dock at a neutral port where the vessel was seized and declawed by the authorities. Well that wasn't going to stop them -- as you can't change a tiger's stripes! ‎
