Since this week is the run-up to Camerone Day (30 April) I’m going to try to post as much as my schedule can allow. This will mean an obligatory Grit Gregson story from the pages of the UK comic “Lion”. This one appeared in issue #104 (13 Feb 1954). This time “Dandy Diamond”, the British legionnaire gets into a pickle and the pickle is resolved on enemy territory through quick thinking and of course, a flashing mirror. Check out the fort on the second illustration below. That looks like a Foreign Legion outpost to me…not an Arab fort.
