# Hãy trở về với Chính-Phủ Việt-nam Cộng-Hòa (Return to the Government of the Republic of Vietnam), Chieu Hoi leaflet ATF-112-71

Two-sided leaflet in orange and black. One side has the headline 'Return to the Government of the Republic of Vietnam', a drawing of three smiling men gesturing toward a village, and the line 'Return to your family to begin building a new life'. The other is a picture story of guerrillas finding leaflets, reading them and rallying. The tell: the picture story shows the desired act as already being done by others.

Both sides read from the AWM scans. The AWM identification strips ('AUSTRALIAN WAR MEMORIAL' and the accession number) at the foot of each scan are part of the scan and are omitted. The hosted image places the two sides of the leaflet one above the other (or side by side), joined by FRAME from AWM's two scans of the same object. Translation is FRAME's own literal rendering, machine-assisted and not verified by a fluent reader; AWM's English translation was consulted.
