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 stresses that the American Forces will not stop their attack until the Japanese Navy and Army surrender unconditionally. It also explains that the term "unconditional surrender" means not the extermination of the Japanese race but the end of the war and the military rule in Japan.
