Sex bomb: erotic psy-ops throughout war history
Fascinating online collection of sexually-oriented wartime propaganda, from WWII through present. At left, a shelling report form from the Korean War, fortified with boobies to encourage more soldiers to carry and complete the form each day. I'm not in agreement with all of the editorializing, and I wish some of these historic images weren't displayed so small, ultra-compressed, and with the naughty bits blurred out -- but it's an amazing collection. Link (thanks, Philip)
