Oh the irony.

 

Here are few posters from Yugoslav partisans.

Translation: "Everyone must fight for the freedom of Croatia!"

Translation: "Take guns everyone!!"

Translation from Slovenian: "Slovenes, round up and defend ourselves!"

 

Nice! Keep em coming! Any from neighboring countries? I ]ve been looking for early Greek, Italian and Austrian.

WW2 Anti Aircraft Defense Warning Sign

 

Thanks! I'll try to find some from neighboor countries!

 

Here are some more Yugoslav Partisan posters.

Translation from cyrillic: "Serbia can't be calmed!" It refers that Serbia can't settle down with the occupation.

Translation: "For the final strike, everyone-everything!"

Translation from Slovenian: "Death to occupiers and traitors!"

This one is one of my favourite posters from the WWII. It shows Slovenian farmer defending from Germans and Italians while he's getting stabbed in the back by B.G. (Bela Garda>White Guard).

 

India: Safe Drinking Water was not to be found.
Milk in Tea was boiled until it lumped and turned over twice - to ensure that too was safe.
Tea in Indian Restaurants is made that way to this day, and it is delicious!
