An account of the resource
This poster tells the story of Private Blotz who contracts VD.
"Citation: George Q. Blotz, A.S.N. 00000000. Private. For conspicuous stupidity on the field of dishonor. On the night of August 4, 1942 Pvt. Blotz went to the town nearest his post. Arriving there, he proceeded to get drunk in the quickest possible manner. Shortly afterwards taking no precautions and with utter disregard of personal safety he exposed himself completely to venereal disease. The stupidity displayed by Pvt. Blotz on this occasion reflects great discredit upon himself and the military service. Residence at Present: G.U. Ward : Borinquen Field, P.R."

“Once there was a [man]. He thought he was a very smart [man] and said that the [posters] were just a lot of [smoke]. One night he got himself a [pass] and took a ride in a [bus] to the nearest [bar] for a couple of snorts of [rum]. Soon having had many snorts of [rum] he met a little [girl]. He was drunk and she was willing so he -- CENSORED!. It didn’t take long to find out that he had really met [clap] and [siff] all because he didn’t use a rubber and take a pro. He has to take treatment for 12 to 18 months or more. And now he knows he wasn’t such a smart [man] after all.”
