We know the day! Come on Yanks! - Second World War German airborne Propaganda leaflet. Text-based leaflet. Front reads; "They know that the material is not the deciding factor. They know that it takes streams of blood and countless lives to gain a few inches of ground. Take it from us buddy, we have not been asleep at the switch. Our screaching mimmies will tear the guts out of you. Our mortars and throwers, our mines and M.Gs. and a few new things we have up our sleeve, will reap a terrific harvest of blood and lives. We know the day! Come on Yanks!". Reverse reads; "Come on Yanks! We know that for weeks you have been preparing a new push. This time you surely expect to reach the Rhine. Tremendous amounts of guns, tanks, shells and bulldozers have been pilled up on your side and again you have been told by your officers that this time it is going to be a walkover. Most of you are rookies but those few fellows in the American 1st. and 9th. Armies who are still alive to tell the tale, know what a hell of a time lies ahead of you." 13cm x 17.5cm.
