After WW11

The Types of propaganda used in this poster are: Appeal To Fear.

What this poster is showing and telling us is that we always be saying to people that they should sacrifice their lives for our country. What we don't know is that when we're saying that and telling others to join and sacrifice themselves is that we're telling them to die for our country and give their life in war. That's not right when they say that because nobody knows how hard it is to be in the army and be in the front lines risking your life. It also says that," He knew the meaning of sacrifice!" That is saying that knowing when people tell you that and you still join the army risking your life. Your joining the army knowing on what the consequences are if you do get sent out in the front and know that your life will be at risk in this.

We get a different message from this poster to everyone else. It's because during that time while the war was going on, they were in need of troops. So maybe they were thinking that it might be good to give their lives and they will be remembered through time. Not everyone is remembered just for joining the army but their families will know that they went to war to bring peace with other countries across the nations.

  1. Great, thorough observations. Remember...you still need to post one more analysis on a different classic war poster.
