Antisemitic Nazi propaganda leaflet mimicking a US silver certificate found by a US soldier
Anti-Jewish and anti-Allied forces Nazi propaganda leaflet acquired by Charles E. Pugh while he served as a United States paratrooper in France during World War II. These leaflets were dropped from planes over Paris in late 1943, as part of a German propaganda campaign to raise suspicions against the United States and its part in the worldwide Jewish conspiracy which threatened the safety of France and all of Europe. The streets would appear to be littered with real dollar bills. Then, after picking one up, a person would discover that it was fake and see the information detailing how Jews have manipulated the US and controlled its currency to support the Jewish threat and wage the Jewish war. Charles E. Pugh was born in 1924 in Kentucky. In April 1943, he enlisted in the United States Army. He served in the 517th Parachute Regimental Combat Team, 17 Airborne Division in combat for several months in France and other areas of Europe during World War II. After the war, he married Ann and had two children. Dr. Pugh, age 76, died in 2001 in Texas. No restrictions on access
