Bruce Carter was sent on a special mission by George Washington. But captured and killed by the British during the Revolutionary War. Because his failure caused information to fall into enemy hands, Carter's spirit was confined to Earth. Generations later Bruce Carter III is visited by the ghost, who directs Carter to the location of a cloak and tri-cornered hat - - this hat gives Carter invincibility and super-strength. From that moment forward Bruce Cater secretly fights as THE FIGHTING YANK, occasionally aided by his long-gone ancestor. THE FIGHTING YANK appeared in Startling Comics, America's Best Comics, and his own comic title.
