A blue tank seen head-on fires a beam across a globe whose map shows Britain and Europe, over the words Russia, N'th Africa, Europe. The headline plays on the tank's name and the Prime Minister's, 'Churchills are on the Job', so the leader's standing attaches to the vehicle and to the production effort (transfer).
