Your favourite piece Non-Serious war art

Okay, as suggested in the Favourite piece of war art, here's one for the cartoons, posters, nose art and other pieces of humour that came out of the war. I'll kick it off with my avatar, and let's see where we go from there.

Went to my local Western Front Association branch meeting Sunday. We had a talk about the origins of Battlefield Tourism. Which became huge in the 1920s and 30s. This Giles cartoon came out the first Sunday after D-Day, 1944.
Titled simply "HIMMEL! TOURISTS!".

Paul Reed will like this.
