Vietnam War Picture: A Propaganda Poster


(Picture courtesy of the National Archives and Records Administration.)

Vietnam. This picture is one that would reach potentially every father in the world. It was used as the cover of a pamphlet which describes the truth about the cause of the subversive insurgency in Vietnam. Such dramatic pictorial appeals draw sympathy from the reader before a word is read, thus making the remainder of the story also more sympathetic to the audience. (1966)
