So let me tell you what I know about those troops deploying by boat with that new equipment.

These are awesome. I'll be sure to keep this info under my Stetson.

I'm a bit of an amature collector of WWII propaganda posters. Mainly US posters like the ones seen here but I also have a few German posters. Fascinating stuff seeing what the mentality of the public was like during the war.

We still use these same WWII era posters to this day. ALl over the ship, and I should scan all the shit in our MWR phone room over here in Afghanistan. You would get a kick out of it. Everyone of them is old school like that!

I couldn't find "Loose lips sink ships" on any of those. Was it not around yet?

Parlance about our advance leaves no chance for independence!


...You know, in case the U.S. needs to fight for its own again or that of another nation.

I love the mock versions of these. And the random "This man may die". WW2 posters are photoshop fodder.

OPSEC was invented to make military wives feel like they were doing something important....by shutting their god damn mouths.
