This summary analyzes a student project comparing World War I recruitment posters depicting heroic images of battle with scenes from the poem "Dulce et Decorum Est" showing the gruesome realities of war. The project contrasts the propaganda posters young men saw promoting glory and honor in combat with black and white images illustrating the poem's graphic depiction of a soldier suffocating from gas. The student argues the recruitment posters did not accurately portray the true dangers of war that soldiers soon discovered on the front lines.
