Hey, remember this?

Here it is in action:

I want one.

Thanks to Olaf.

NEIN!

I meant to put this one up ages ago:

Blow Him Sky High, Boys!

Our fighting men may have struggled mightily to defeat the greatest evil the world has ever known, but that didn't mean they couldn't have fun along the way.


The caricatures on the bomb were drawn by legendary cartoon director Tex Avery, which is pretty amazing. I'd be lucky to get a fill-in artist from Tiny Toons for my gag bomb.

This was submitted by rcs, who discovered it here.

According to this website, the proper credits for this picture are:

Bayonet Week, Day Five!

I look at this picture and think to myself:

Truly, this is why they are the GREATEST GENERATION.

And I mean that from the bottom of my heart. Also, is it just me, or did a police sketch artist draw that target? It looks like an unfinished sketch of the Unabomber doing a Chaplin impression.

Olaf again with this picture of soldiers on a Pullman train methodically planning for the very real possibility that Hitler would be on the business end of one of their M-1 Garand's.
