Pte. "Gunner" MacCay was a Marine during World War II and a member of the Losers.
History
Gunner and his NCO, Sarge, spent much of World War II fighting the Japanese on an unnamed island in the Pacific. They were sometimes joined by Pooch, a military dog, and occasionally aided by a nurse named Julie and a combat photographer named Vicki. A notable foe was Colonel Hakawa, the so-called imperial practical joker,[1] who used booby traps in an attempt to kill the marines and take the island for the Japanese.
He was killed in action in Markovia in 1943 fighting the Anti-Monitor's Shadow Demons during the Crisis on Infinite Earths.[2] He was later resurrected as a member of the Creature Commandos.

Notes
- Although this character was originally introduced during DC's Earth-One era of publication, their existence following the events of the 1985–86 limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths remains intact. However, some elements of the character's Pre-Crisis history may have been altered or removed for Post-Crisis New Earth continuity, and should be considered apocryphal.
