""Australian propaganda posters DURING WORLD WAR 1 utilised six different aspects to appeal to men to enlist. These included:
 * 1) Appealing to their patriotism by summoning people to 'rally around the flag' and reminding them of their duty to the Empire and the British
 * 2) Utilising a gender approach which made men feel they needed to enlist to prove their sporting aptitude, courage and masculinity.
 * 3) Inviting peers and family to place pressure and shame on men for not applying in order to make them feel ashamed and cowardly.
 * 4) Encouraging a spirit of adventure and a desire to see the world by using a recruitment poster which places emphasis on a physical, sport-like side of war.
 * 5) Self-interest, including a chance to have a secure job which was relatively well paid.
 * 6) Exaggerating the hatred and fear of the Germans by allowing people to think that they might attack their friends and families""
