# Next! (Japan) 6th War Loan

A soldier's grimacing face in a camouflaged helmet looms over a map of the Japanese home islands labelled JAPAN, with the 6th War Loan seal at left showing a bomb falling onto a rising-sun flag. The bond drive borrows the stigma of the enemy flag and the soldier's resolve to sell the purchase as the next military blow.
