History

The Sky Devils were a group of soldiers who joined up with the Allied Forces in the 1940's during World War II. They consisted of war hero Captain K-4, French fighter ace Lt. Rene D'Auvergne and British actor turned soldier Lt. Ronald Wolverstone-Clodd. During the course of the war there are three recorded adventures of the Sky Devils:

In their first recorded adventure, they would come to the rescue of a Allied fighter plane attacked by Luftwaffe fighters. Later K-4 would infiltrate a Nazi ammo base and set it to explode. Being discovered, K-4 would manage to set off the explosions and be rescued by Rene and Ronald[1]. Later, the Sky Devils would be assigned to track down a zeppelin that managed to bomb London near the Thames River. They would infiltrate it's hidden air base and learn it's next target was Paris, France. K-4 would personally take the zeppelin down before it could complete it's next mission[2]. In their final recorded mission, Rene and Ronald would be sent to photograph a Nazi air and marine base only to be captured. Learning that the Nazis were planning an attack they would break out and warn K-4 who would lead an Allied surprise attack and decimate the base, rescuing his comrades before they could be killed by the Nazis[3].

In the early days of the year 1940, the Sky-Devils were assigned by Captain Samuel Sawyer to fly Nick Fury and Red Hargrove into Nazi Germany to assist Nazi scientist Abraham Erskine flee to the United States[4]. In the summer of 1940 they would be assigned to aid Fury and Hargrove in attacking secret Nazi fortresses. In one of their raids they destroyed a Nazi lab in Frankfurt, Germany. It not only further frustrated Nazi efforts to create a super-soldier serum, but also freed World War I hero John Steele from stasis[5]. Later, in the fall of that year, Steele would join the Sky-Devils, Fury and Hargrove in attacking Nazi operations across Germany[6]. After witnessing a massacre of villagers in early 1941 -- including women and children -- caused by the Red Skull, the Sky-Devils were ordered to return to Britain, leaving John Steele behind to continue fighting Nazi forces alone[7]. Of these covert missions in Nazi Germany, it is unknown which members of the Sky-Devils were involved in these missions.

The Sky Devil's subsequent activities during the war remain unrevealed.
