British leaflet dropped into German trenches by balloon:

FOR WHAT ARE YOU FIGHTING, MICHEL?

They tell you that you are fighting for the Fatherland. Have you ever thought why you are fighting?

You are fighting to glorify Hindenburg, to enrich Krupp. You are struggling for the Kaiser, the Junkers, and the militarists....

They promise you victory and peace. You poor fools! It was promised your comrades for more than three years. They have indeed found peace, deep in the grave, but victory did not come! . . .

It is for the Fatherland.... But what is your Fatherland? Is it the Crown Prince who offered up 600,000 men at Verdun? Is it Hindenburg, who with Ludendorff is many kilometers behind the front lines making more plans to give the English more cannon fodder (cannon fodder=chair à canon) ? Is it Krupp for whom each year of war means millions of marks? Is it the Prussian Junkers who still cry over your dead bodies for more annexations?

No, none of these is the Fatherland. You are the Fatherland.... The whole power of the Western world stands behind England and France and America! An army of ten million is being prepared ; soon it will come into the battle. Have you thought of that, Michel ?

Britain joined the war on August 4th 1914. She had a small professional army and no policy of national service so she needed many more men for the British Expeditionary Force (BEF).

Consequently the British government quickly created a lot of recruitment posters.

Other posters followed, many stimulating wartime economy, others encouraging support for government policy by provoking indignation against the atrocities committed (always) by the German Army.
