EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WWI recruitment poster, titled "Do Your Duty: Join the US Marines," was created circa 1918 to encourage young American men to enlist and support their country in the ongoing conflict. The poster's design features a determined and resolute marine standing tall against a backdrop of a fierce sea battle. The marine, clad in his iconic green uniform and carrying a rifle, gazes out at the viewer with unwavering resolve. In the background, the turmoil of war is depicted through the chaos of a naval battle, with ships engulfed in smoke and flames, and the ominous glint of artillery and guns. The poster's powerful message is conveyed through the use of bold, patriotic colors - the red, white, and blue of the American flag, and the green of the marines' uniform. The tagline, "Help them defend America on land and sea," reinforces the multifaceted role of the US Marines during WWI, as they were called upon to serve both on land and at sea. The poster's design effectively conveys the urgency and importance of enlisting, as the fate of the nation hung in the balance during this tumultuous time in history. This historic recruitment poster is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women who answered the call to duty during WWI. It stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the American people and their unwavering commitment to defending their country during times of crisis.
