Оригинальная газета времен Второй мировой войны для союзных войск

A collection of war-time magazines intended for fighting countries' readers. Signal was a modern, glossy, illustrated photo journal and army propaganda tool, meant specifically for audiences in neutral, allied, and occupied countries. A German edition was distributed in Switzerland and to various other countries with a strong German military presence, but Signal was never distributed in Germany proper. The promoter of the magazine was the chief of the Wehrmacht propaganda office, Colonel Hasso von Wedel. Signal was published fortnightly (plus some special issues) in as many as 25 editions and 30 languages, and at its height had a circulation of 2,500,000 copies. It was available in the United States in English until December 1941. The last number was 6/45, only known in one sample from the Swedish edition. Yank magazine's first issue was published on June 17, 1942. The magazine was written by enlisted rank (EM) soldiers with a few officers as managers and initially was made available only to the US Army overseas. By the fifth issue of July 15, 1942, it was made available to serving members within the US, however, it was never made available on the newsstands for public purchase. YANK's circulation exceeded 2.5 million in 41 countries with 21 editions. The last issue was published on December 28, 1945.

Yank, the Army Weekly magazine was a publication produced by the United States Army during World War II. The magazine was created in 1942 to provide entertainment and news to American soldiers serving overseas. It was distributed to soldiers in the European, African and Pacific theatres of war. Yank was unique in that it was written by soldiers for soldiers. The magazine featured articles on a wide range of topics, including sports, music, movies and current events. It also included cartoons, jokes and other forms of humour to help boost troop morale. One of the most popular features of Yank was its pin-up girls. These were photographs of attractive women that were included in the magazine to boost morale among the troops. The pin-up girls became an iconic symbol of the magazine and were often cut out and displayed in soldiers' barracks. Yank ceased publication in 1945 at the end of the Second World War. But its legacy lives on as a testament to the importance of providing soldiers with entertainment and news during wartime.
