# "100% unserer Belegschaft sind gegen Remilitarisierung": factory gate boards, Werk Fortschritt II, Berlin

Women leaving a factory pass a gate board stating that '100% of our workforce are against remilitarisation' (the last word is cut off by a passer-by), under a facade banner 'Fünfjahrplan Friedensplan'. A unanimous figure is put on public display as if counted, and the plan is named a peace plan.
