Featured Poster of the Week
The English translation reads: "Military training for all people is the pledge of victory!" On the machine is written "Workers of all countries, unite!"
‘The worker stands by his machinery, his trusted rifle in his strong hand!' This poster hails the enrollment in Vseobuch, the U.S.S.R.'s universal military training program. By decree, all citizens were obligated to receive basic training even if they did not join the Red Army. Vseobuch was also the administration that managed the training before 1921. The term Vseobuch was also used for pre-inductee training, a mandatory practice for workers after 1925.
