# Czechoslovaks Carry On

A large helmeted soldier in brown and black, rifle in hand, fills the poster, with a silhouetted column behind him carrying the Czechoslovak flag and a black flag with a red chalice, under the words 'Czechoslovaks carry on'. The tell for transfer is the national flags and chalice banner placed beside the soldier, which tie the fighting man to the nation and its history.
