EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WW2 poster, titled 'Back up the Fighting Forces,' dates back to the early 1940s and serves as a powerful reminder of the united front against adversity during the global conflict. The image showcases three brave servicemen in their respective uniforms - an airman in the Royal Air Force (RAF), a soldier in the British Army, and a sailor from the Royal Navy - standing shoulder to shoulder, embodying the spirit of camaraderie and unity that defined the war effort. The trio wears the distinctive uniforms of the era: the airman dons a leather flying helmet and goggles, a flight suit with orange insignia, and a parachute harness; the soldier is dressed in khaki, with a tin helmet and a rifle slung over his shoulder; the sailor wears a blue naval uniform, complete with a white hat and a red band around it. The lettering in bold orange text above the men reads, "Join the Fighting Forces," while the text below, "Your Country Needs You," is a nod to Lord Kitchener's iconic recruitment poster from World War I. The poster's design is both patriotic and historically significant, reflecting the unwavering determination and resilience of the British people during the war years. The image of these three men, representing the air, land, and sea forces, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the military personnel and their families during this pivotal period in history.
