Additional information:
Cruelty
towards
the
enemy
was
encouraged by propaganda directed at children as well as adults. The photographs and a postcards is typical for its depiction of children in uniform. The use of uniforms, armed forces' for boys and nurses' for girls, contributed to the expectation that children would grow up to defend their country. More immediately, it increased the pressure on children to be patriotic and active supporters of the war. The use of cruelty was particularly heightened in commercial publications, such as the German children's book Hurray! A picture book of war. The book tells the story of two boys, the German 'Willi' and Austrian 'Franzl', as they learn about the different countries fighting in the war, and take part in attacks on enemies. The countries are divided into 'good' or 'evil' depending on which side they are on.
