Fighting War Stories 1952
Description
In this page, a subtle slight is thrown at Asians’ teeth when an American Sergeant hits a Chinese agent with a bottle telling him, “I hope you have good dentist.” When the Sergeant proceeds to attack Lily, the anti-Asian violence quickly becomes gendered, as he claims he’s going to use a series of “American punches” and proudly claims, “This is called a spankin’ Lily – American style!”
