a careless word . . . another cross



A stark white grave marker on brown dirt background with a GI helmet and ammo belt slung across it.  OWI Poster No. 23.  1943-O-501237.  Artist is John Atherton. Large poster, 40" x 28", in fine shape.  This is quite a famous image, and is even in the MoMa collection.
