# His war is over.. Yours isn't! Buy extra bonds, 6th War Loan

Soldiers wade through surf carrying a wounded man on a stretcher beneath a blue headline, with a red block below telling the viewer to buy extra bonds. The sacrifice shown in the photograph is set against the buyer's comparatively small ask, with Yours underlined. The technique is transfer of the casualty's standing onto the bond purchase.
