<p>This poster promotes an advocacy agency for disabled veterans that offers them a range of services to help them reintegrate into civilian life. In the image, a uniformed and decorated serviceman clasps hands with a similarly decorated farmer in civilian garb. Though both have lost different limbs, their gesture indicates solidarity and camaraderie among veterans, bridging rural, urban, and professional differences.</p>
