We have just begun to fight
Description
United States poster issued by the Office of War information featuring an appropriation of Jules Abel Faivre's most famous First World War poster 'On les Aura!' (see ARTV00065). In the lower right is a listing of places that United States Army is in action starting with Pearl Harbour. The quote ' We have just begun to fight!' is taken from a speech by a naval commander during the American revolutionary war in 1779.
