Deutsche Eure Manner Schmidt Heimat
Sturmbataillon Schmidt - Defend Your Homeland, German Men! Join Up Now!
EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful poster, dated 1919, features a head-and-shoulders portrait of a resolute German soldier against the backdrop of a factory and idyllic rural landscape. In each lower corner, the distinctive coat of arms of Sturmbataillon Schmidt is proudly displayed. The soldier's steely gaze and determined expression convey a sense of duty and patriotism, as the caption below urges German men to "Tretet ein beim Sturmbataillon Schmidt – Deutsche Manner schutt Eure Heimat!" or "Join the Storm Battalion Schmidt – German men, protect your homeland!" The poster's design effectively juxtaposes the soldier's individual commitment to the collective responsibility of defending the fatherland. The industrial scene in the background symbolizes the nation's economic might and the rural landscape represents the traditional values and heritage that the soldiers are fighting to preserve. Sturmbataillon Schmidt was a military unit formed in the aftermath of World War I, during the German military's demobilization and the subsequent political instability. The unit was part of the Freikorps, or volunteer military formations, that emerged in the chaos of the post-war period. These units played a significant role in suppressing leftist uprisings and maintaining order in Germany during this tumultuous time. This poster serves as a poignant reminder of the emotional appeal and the sense of urgency that motivated German men to join the military and defend their homeland during the tumultuous years following the end of World War I.
