A Reminder ...




I saw this on a t-shirt and wanted to know where it came from. It originally appeared in 1939.

While Britain was about to go to war with Germany, it was feared that in the early months of the war Britain might be subjected to gas attacks, heavy bombing raids and possibly invasion. The posters were commissioned by King George VI and were intended to offer the public reassurance during uncertain times.

It's a simple message and still applicable almost 70 years later. The sentiment remains the same, and still feels a bit comforting during today's uncertain times. We can all use that as a reminder - no matter what we are dealing with. Don’t you agree?
