Nein!

(Edit for those who missed it: A National Guard poster included World War II German reenactors)

That's what happens when you stop teaching history and allow people to copy and paste

And you know what?

I've seen worse


Here is a screenshot of a news story (Dutch media) on the Dutch railways

It tells us there is 3035 km of track...
You see the issue there?

Do we know what the black and white background image for the poster was? The poster is about tradition and the soldier is holding a photo of his dad (or grandfather) that probably fought in WW2.

Is that a concentration camp?

That cap in the OP says "Vietnam".

Perhaps it's an abridged history of foreign service.

...but I agree, perhaps a poor choice.

 

[toolmanmike]

Is that a concentration camp?

Could be. I see the photo on the top is of a soldier with Vietnam on his hat.

I meant post 5.

[AMC Diplomat]

Couldn't find any stock images from Vietnam either.......

Dachau death camp

 

[dart4forte]

I wonder why the CSM didn’t proof the poster. If he did it clearly shows his lack of judgement.

Up here you don’t get free education but there are free tampons in the men’s washrooms.

Montana Army National Guard has admitted their mistake and is taking down the posters.

Good to hear. They’ll have some conversations with those who reviewed the poster befor it went out. The Army teaches attention to detail. Kinda lacked in this case. At least it’s being addressed.

Unfortunately the world we live in...right click, copy, paste, tahhhhdaaahhh.
Smh...

 

[Righty Tighty]

Still not as bad as this one.
