194484881Virginia: U.S. ARMY 64TH ENGINEER TOPOGRAPHIC BATTALION USAFICPA 1944. Poster. Good Plus. Three informational propaganda posters in a series comprising 4009-1; 4009-2; and 4009-7 each measuring approximately 17 1/2" x 11 1/2". Each of the three shows a central fold crease and one shows considerable smudging or perhaps dry mold; each is now protected in a stiff archival sleeve. Bottom corner of each reads "Reproduced by 64th Engr. Top. Bn USAFICPA" followed by the graphic number. We're guessing that these posters did not come out of the far larger mapping divisions in the Topographic Battalion but were from the "Graphic Arts and Distribution" division domiciled in Virginia. The artist for each is "BRAD". <br /> <br /> 4009-1 depicts a tank surrounded by attacking Japanese soldiers who are attemptng to overrun the tank lobbing grenades etc. but who are repelled ostensibly because well it's a tank and the fact that the soldiers in the tank are prepared. The caption in the top right corner reads: "'STOP THE JAP"/Infantry Troops Should Always be Ready and Able/ to Stop the Enemy from/ Swarming over Our Tanks!" <br /> <br /> 4009-2 diagrams relative positions of squad placement whose job is to accompany the tank. The caption below reads: "PROTECTING YOUR TANK" In Thick Country with No Enemy Contact -- about Half a Squad should Accompany the Tank Very Closely 5 Yds. and the Remainder Following Close Support You Must Be His Eyes Thru the Jungle and the Spotter for His Fire.Ancillary note follows at bottom reminding that these spotter scouts are guiding the movement of the tanks through the undergrowth.<br /> <br /> 4009-7 shows "TANKS OVERRUNNING ENEMY POSITION": Infantrymen Advancing for the Mop-Up while their Buddies Cover Both Them and the Tanks by Fire.
