Skipper/s in the Spotlight panel from the Navy Times

Mario DeMarco illustrated this panel comic in Navy Times from 1961-1981, and maybe longer. These examples from the US Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery's Historical Office's biographical files run from 1961-1981. The GCD and the Marvel Wiki have credits for DeMarco, but Jerry Bail's Who's Who in American Comic Books has the best data, and shows him as doing "Sports comics (pen/ink/) 20 yrs in Navy Times." I could only find two other examples online (which are at the bottom), and the Times search engine is useless returning almost 7000 results.
