# Operations: Help Juan (English poster, a Jaycee project, distributed in the Philippines)

Nine people walk arm in arm across the sheet: a woman in a red blouse, a ship's officer, a man in a white suit, a nurse, a farmer in a salakot hat and barong, a student with a book, a helmeted soldier, a doctor and a worker in a T-shirt. The headline reads 'Operations: Help Juan' and the base line 'A Jaycee project'. The tell is plain-folks with bandwagon: every walk of life is shown linked together behind the call to help 'Juan'.
