Dots In The Sky Dynamite On The Ground Paratroopers
Amazing and rare WWII poster/News Map about paratroopers. Dots in the sky, dynamite on the ground! The text reads “It takes plenty of guts to make combat jumps over enemy territory but the paratrooper's job is tougher than that. First of all he's an Infantryman. And one of the best. His job is to take out the enemy behind the lines, disrupt his communications, destroy his supplies and do everything possible to pave the way for the main assault. Brute strength alone won't do the job. It takes savvy and skill... plus a good chunk of nerve. It's a combination that has made the American paratrooper famous as an outstanding component of a tough, smart Army.
Photo shows part of the "Operation Uppercut" with chutes carrying men and supplies spilling out over southern France.
Measures 35x47”
Condition- excellent
