A poster comes to life. He doesn't wear a sergeant's stripes or a captain's bars, but he's an essential soldier of the home front, just as vital to the winning of this war as the men in uniform on America's myriad battlefields.

It was one of many pamphlets displayed by Elmer Davis, director of the Office of War Information (OWI) to show what his organization is doing to overcome Axis propaganda abroad. This pamphlet emphasises to the Chinese that their fliers and our fliers are parts of the same team

Judy takes a shot at the Axis. Judy Canova, star of stage and screen, opens her personal salvage drive for scrap rubber by aiming a well-placed shot at the Axis. She's donating her trusty slingshot to the drive. The scarcity of crude rubber is serious, and reclaimed rubber made from scrap must take up part of the slack.
