EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful WWI poster, part of the Parliamentary Recruiting Committee's Group System series, was produced in a Welsh language version in 1916. The poster, with its bold red text and lettering, was used to encourage enlistment in the British Army during the First World War. The Group System allowed men to join the military with their friends or colleagues, creating a sense of camaraderie and unity. The Welsh version of the poster reads, "Enlistment in Groups will reopen on Monday, January 10th, 1916, and will proceed until further notice." The use of the Welsh language was an effective way to reach and persuade potential recruits in Wales, demonstrating the committee's commitment to recruiting from all parts of the United Kingdom. The poster's historical significance lies in its role as a tool of persuasion during a time of war, when the need for manpower was critical. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals during the conflict and the importance of unity and community in times of hardship.
