I picked up some interesting (to me) posters just recently. I am trying some new imaging software, and will shoot a few and see if I can get them posted here. I was told that they were posters for display in a barracks, etc. on Soviet army bases.

Here goes nothing...

And another.

Thought this might be of interest. Bought this off local ebay. Am going to get it framed for my office.

Art, if you want to preserve the patriotic jingo-rhyme, meaning's not lost with : "A sniper shoots from far away, every shot there's hell to pay.

Another poster along the same lines, but with a Three Time Hero of the Soviet Union general of aviation. Same size and price as the above poster, but this one didn't sell. Any ideas who this individual is? :)
