Protect Your Heritage - Join the Territorial Army
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful recruiting poster from circa 1920, created by the renowned British artist E R Blair. The image depicts a determined young man in military uniform, gazing intently into the distance with one hand on his heart and the other holding a shield adorned with the Union Jack. Behind him, a backdrop of crumbling ancient ruins and a dark, ominous sky suggests the threats to the nation's heritage that the Territorial Army was meant to protect against. The Territorial Army (TA) was established in 1908 as a part-time military force to supplement the Regular Army in times of need. By the early 1920s, the TA was undergoing a recruitment drive to expand its ranks and strengthen the country's defense capabilities. This poster, printed by C Allen and Company Limited in London, was part of that effort. The text below the image reads, "Join the Territorial Army. Protect Your Heritage." This simple yet effective message emphasizes the importance of individual responsibility in preserving the nation's history and values. The TA was seen as a way for citizens to contribute to the greater good, while also gaining valuable skills and experiences. The poster's design is striking and evocative, using strong visual symbols to convey a sense of duty, patriotism, and protection. The use of the Union Jack, a powerful national symbol, further emphasizes the connection between the individual and the collective heritage of the country. Overall, "Protect Your Heritage: Join the Territorial Army" is a powerful reminder of the enduring importance of civic engagement and the role that ordinary people can play in safeguarding their nation's future.
