See the World – Join!

This Dutch military recruitment poster features a trumpet-blowing lion personifying the Netherlands, standing atop a globe with the call to "See the World" and "Join." The text references Pak aan in Indie, likely a stylized call to action related to deployment in the Indies. Created during the post-WWII period (1945–1946), it was designed to attract recruits for the Royal Netherlands Army’s December 7 Division, a unit deployed during the Indonesian-Dutch conflict.
