1990 SF Recruitment Posters

I have been looking around the forum and found a 1984 recruitment ad and that reminded me of these posters. I didn't know where I had hid them away years ago but was able to locate.

They were rolled up. Thus the coasters on the corners.

I remember the first one - it was printed on green paper.

That's a great idea Richard, to frame them. Hmmm, I'll have to look into that.

The first poster with the Ft. Bragg info is printed on a heavy stock paper while the second one is on a lighter stock but bigger.

Very cool……it has a quite spartan and Spartan feel about it.

I remember seeing a few Special Forces/Green Beret "trading cards" which looked too be part of a set that IIRC had a baseball card look and feel to them probably dating to around the 1960's.

I've got one of those in my library.

The SF Insignia was a poster the recruiters used to have, too. I don't remember where I got mine - must've been from the SF Recruiter at Fort Benning in '85 when I was the Tower Training Branch Chief.
