# Blast 'Em! Blast 'Em with more production!

Production-drive poster: a black eagle marked U.S. dives toward bombs that burst on a swastika flag and a rising-sun flag, under the headline BLAST 'EM! The slogan is attached to the national bird and to weapons striking enemy emblems (transfer), so output is framed as an act of attack.
