| Content: | This item is a Japanese-language propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office during the Second World War. An English translation of the text is attached. The message 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. 50,000 of them were printed. |
