Hmm...not sure I understand the date. According to several sources, this poster wasn't released until 1942, and the BSA campaign didn't begin until 1942, as well. Besides, it doesn't make sense to have a US flag on a war poster until after December of 41 anyway, I'm thinking. Pretty sure the date is wrong on this one.

1943. The top four flags, USA, GB, USSR and ROC, being positioned together corresponds with the meetings between Roosevelt, Stalin, Churchill, and Chiang-Kai-Shek in 1943.

I have to agree with lpress and mrpibb; I don't think the United States would be so firmly represented on a war poster in 1941. The phrase "UNITED NATIONS" perplexes me; the official United Nations wasn't formed until 1945, but this usage of the phrase seems to be more of an informal description of a confederation of nations with similar goals, not an official UN poster; if I'm wrong, then the photo would have to date from 1945, I would say.

John Spooner said:
Thank you so much for honouring my birthday with a picture featuring the man who was very indirectly responsible for my middle name. My grandmother really really liked the name Michael. But when her first (and only) son was born in 1922, it didn't seem right to give him the same name as the man causing such a fuss (as she would have put it) across the Irish Sea. So he was named Philip. When her first grandson (i.e. me) was born, she still liked the name Michael a lot and persuaded my parents to call their new baby Michael (as a middle name - I suspect a comprise). None of my siblings has a middle name and It's still an object of jealousy. So that's my very tenuous connection to Michael Collins.
