Nihongun shôhei shokun [The truth of our leaflets].
Description
A propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office (FELO) during the Second World War. This leaflet is written in Japanese and was distributed to New Britain, New Guinea and Papua. It is accompanied by an English translation of the text. It is a revised edition of J161 and states that Japanese soldiers must have realised by now that previous FELO leaflets advised them of the truth of the war. The message warns that the defeat of Japan is inevitable and urges them to do what this leaflet says before it is too late.
