Re: German Posters
Hello mise eire! These posters are beauriful in their own artistic way, although fairly nationalistic in wording. Here's a few in english for you.
1: Do more than is required by duty.
2: There are cases in which the greatest daring is the greatest wisdom. "Clausewitz quote".
3: Only a strong government can guarantee peace. Peaceful assurances by our neighbors are surely valuable, but only we can assure our security. "Moltke quote".
You might find this link interesting as it has an explanation to what and why they were printed.
