The caption is "I serve the country." People considered that fighting in the war was like serving their countries. In this poster, the government wanted the Russian to believe that if they worked in the factories .It was like serving the Russia.

The army, the tanks, the boat, the aeroplane etc. represent people fighting in the war or serving the country. The sickle with hummer symbolize the workers. The hummer with the barrow etc. symbolize the factories or development of the country. The stars symbolize the goal or the sunshine. ( P.S If the people followed the plan, Russia would become better like the sunshine) The effective about the poster is the stars with the worker symbol and the development symbol in it, because that is what the government wanted to imphasize the people to notice.

Conclusion:Russia was in the difficult crisis or situation. The Russians wanted to have a better life. They wanted to have better jobs and they didn't want to be in poverty. They wanted money to support their families. These propaganda had influenced people to support communism, since if they did support the communism their needs would be provided. The communist party wanted people to have positive attitudes towards communism. I believed that the communist party wanted the people to support them so that their goals could be developed. But these propaganda posters provided some fake informations as well...
