What it is
A poster for war work, dated between 1941 and 1945, held by the National Archives as 44-PA-389 in its World War II Posters series.
Why it matters
The government leaned on commercial advertising to bring women into the factories, and government posters made the woman war worker a familiar figure.
What to notice
The shortest form of the call, four words and an exclamation mark.
An order, four words long.
