Private Treptow’s Pledge Fourth Liberty Loan
Tragically, he was KIA during this assignment. A note was found in his pocket. The note read "America must win this war. Therefore, I will work, I will save, I will sacrifice, I will endure, I will fight cheerfully and do my utmost, as if the issue of the whole struggle depended on me alone." The poster features most of this message which was later used to inspire those on the homefront to become more involved in the war effort.
