The team compiled an overall record of 6–5 with a mark of 2–4 in league play, placing sixth in the AAF League.
The Comets began the season with Captain Ted Shipkey as head coach. In October, after the team's first three games, Shipkey was discharged from military service and returned to the University of New Mexico, where he had been head football coach before World War II. He was succeeded by Major Wally Marks who had coached at Indiana State University before the war. Staff Sergeant Jim Harris was the team's line coach until he was discharged along with Shipkey.
The PDC Comets were ranked 27th among the nation's college and service teams in the final Litkenhous Ratings.
