Original vintage World War Two propaganda poster: Sapping the Nazi will to resist... Leaflets. This poster features a black and white photographs showing a German soldier reading a leaflet dropped by the Allies, alongside a quote from Joseph Goebbels reading: "Their leaflets are addressed to the weakest points in the nation. They are weapons... and we must be careful with all weapons". Airborne leaflet propaganda is a form of psychological warfare in which leaflets (flyers) are scattered in the air. Military forces have used aircraft to drop leaflets to attempt to alter the behavior of combatants and non-combatants in enemy-controlled territory, sometimes in conjunction with air strikes. Humanitarian air missions, in cooperation with leaflet propaganda, can turn the populace against their leadership while preparing them for the arrival of enemy combatants. Distribution of airborne leaflet propaganda was used by both Allied and Axis forces in the Second World War, starting with a Royal Air Force leaflet drop over the port of Kiel in September 1939. UK,
