Film of the Day: DON'T BE A SUCKER

A short film was released by the U.S. War Department (which would later become what we know as the Department of Defense) that oddly and sadly has relevance again seventy-five after its release. 

In 1943, during the height of the second World War, the U.S. War Department produced a short film about how political and social propaganda was being used to recruit Nazi sympathizers ... not just in Germany, but also here in the United States.  The title of the film is 'Don't Be a Sucker', and many elements in this film are sadly being seen again.

I invite you to watch this film.  (Running time is approximately twenty-three minutes.)
