Australian Second World War cautionary poster produced by the Allied Land Forces Headquarters (LHQ formed in 1942) to stress the vital necessity for the care and preservation of ammunition during storage, handling and transport. This poster is No.8 in a series of posters by Harry Garnet Kelly. Munitions workers were only one of dozens of groups within the civilian population subjected to posters campaigns. This poster features a graphic depiction of a soldier in full combat uniform in the jungle, wading through water with his gun ready, his back to the viewer. In the left side of the poster a large hand holding a knife with a red sleeve is ready to stab him in the back. The message cautions against the theft of ammunition. It makes reference to "TOJO". General Hideki Tojo was Japan's wartime Prime Minister, and had previously been Japanese Ambassador in the USA.
