ATOMIC WAR! "Arctic Assault"

Ten-Hut!
We return to a potential near future (the 1960s as seen in 1952)...
 ...where the Cold War became hot when Russia launched a sneak attack on the US and NATO with nuclear weapons!
Could Draft-dodger and current National Security Advisor candidate John Bolton have been inspired by this never-reprinted tale of aerial atomic action in the Arctic from Ace's Atomic War #4 (1953)?
Bolton would've been 5 or older when he read this issue at home or at the local barber shop, or in his friends' collections (presuming he had any friends)
The writer is unknown, but the illustrator was Ken Rice who rendered the bulk of the stories in both Atomic War! and World War III!
See you soon...
Dis-missed!
