Mightier Yet! Britain's Mechanised Army grows stronger every day
A low-angle drawing shows a riveted tank with two crewmen and a second tank behind it, under the headline 'Mightier Yet!'. The tell for glittering-generalities is the unquantified claim that the army 'grows stronger every day'; the tell for bandwagon is the stress on steady, continuous growth as a trend to be part of.
