Pic of the Day: War Games

File under fascinating/disturbing: “This is an amazing collection of cinematic propaganda photographs from the U.S. Office of War Information that are on the Library of Congress website. They were made by a photographer named Alfred T. Palmer around 1942.” Aside from stirring up feelings of patriotism, the images warned Americans about foreign spies and targeted women recruits for factory work. More of his pics after the jump.
