2.Produced by the General Motors Corporation, 1942

NARA Still Picture Branch (NWDNS-44-PA-2314)

3. This image seems like its trying to scare the people and persuading to keep on fighting if they don't want their lives taken about by their enemies, which in here are the Nazi's and the Japanese.

2.An American soldier killed on Omaha Beach. 6 June 1944.

3. This picture seemed to have alot of emotion, knowing that most soldiers were young about 18+  and it was sad to see that their lives ended this way. Most of the soldiers just graduated from high school when they joined the military.

 

2. CAPTURED FOURTEEN-YEAR-OLD BOYS who were members of the "Air Guard." On 28 March First Army troops were closing up along the upper Lahn River. Infantry divisions quickly followed the armored spearheads to mop up enemy pockets of bypassed troops and to clear the areas which had been taken in the rapid advances. In six days the shallow Remagen foothold had been expanded to a lodgement area sixty-five miles deep. The advance to Kassel continued. 3. Seeing this picture made me realize how young the soldiers were, I never knew that there were Younger boys, younger than 18. It seems like they were forced to be in the army rather than having a choice. Even if they did have a choice, boys wouldn't choose to be in the army at that age because they'd rather play and be rough as little boys usually are.
