The Power behind the guns! 94 Yours is the power behind the guns; your work—your saving —your lending. On you our Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen rely for the ships, the tanks and the planes which are making their skill and courage irresistible. Every time you spend unnecessarily, precious raw material and vital labour are drawn away from war production. You commit a disloyal act. You weaken Britain's war effort. Save with the vigilance of a sentry guarding a post; and lend every pound, every shilling, every penny to the nation.
