I'm pretty sure that DC-3 is supposed to be C-47. The art style's not quite the same as the manga/anime, but they're similar enough in design and general attitude. IIRC there's supposed to be a sequel covering DC-3's enlistment but the artist ended up burning out before the first chapter was done. Ah well, sic transit gloria and all that jazz.
