This was one of Rockwell's more controversial pieces, and this poster, one of his rarest to come by. Since Rockwell did not like to glorify killing, the only battle picture he ever painted was for the army's ordnance department. It's this poster that shows a machine gunner, his uniform in shreds, in what appears to be a tough spot on the firing line. The coil of cartridge tape and the empty cartridges showed that he was about down to his last shot. The caption reads, "Let's give him enough and on time."
