Its wording promises that the regular divisions are "honored and respected by all" and invites men to enlist for the infantry or one of twelve other branches. James Montgomery Flagg, best known for the Uncle Sam "I Want You" poster, designed it in 1918, and the Sackett & Wilhelms Corporation of Brooklyn printed the lithograph. A blank line at the bottom was left for the address of the nearest recruiting office, which suggests the sheet was meant to be adapted for local use. It reflects the wartime effort to fill the army's ranks while the United States was fighting in Europe.
