The Department of Homeland Security released a poster featuring Uncle Sam urging members of the public to report “foreign invaders.”
Los Angeles Times: “Uncle Sam posters were originally employed as a tool to urge Americans to enlist in the Army during WWI. The posters were revived during WWII to once again recruit soldiers and spread other government messages such as promoting war bonds and warning against foreign espionage.”
