Killed in Action - Stop...
1970

A vintage poster with a textured green and brown background depicting a woman in profile holding a baby. Above them, an American flag is partially visible, and a soldier's helmet, dog tags, and boots are superimposed as if left behind in the sand. The text "KILLED IN ACTION - STOP.." is printed in bold at the bottom. The image conveys a message about the impact of war on families.
