The balance is well with odd vs. even images but it's Spatial organization was a little compact. And the choice of text was a little too childish for a war promotion poster. The images could have also been a little more glorifying to the soliders so you could really see the up side of going to war and defending your country.
This poster is was done well in the fact that it persuades you to defend your country. However, i feel that the photos are too copy paste and it could have been done with mergiing the pictures more. I think that if you would have had a stonger background with more dominant colors then the photos would have come out more. The texting is ok, but i think you should have used more of a bolder serious text. I feel that this text is too fun, for such a serious topic. I really do like your slogan though, it fits the work well. It helps balance the work and gives the work rhythm. The persuading is stong.
I felt like this was a weak persausive poster because the picutres are two copy and paste. Why would you persaude people to go to Iraq when most americans want our troops coming home? There are very little people who want to go to Iraq.
I feel like the text was good because in red it says "Be a hero and defend YOUR country". I think that the "YOUR" grabs your attention.
The pictures are good because it shows a soldier, but it's too copy and paste. It doesn't look real.
Your headline is very cliche', and this is not a good thing. Just because it rhymes doesn't mean that it works with the design. The photos are not great because of the watermarks and they obviously don't go together. It looks more like a collage than a poster to me. Something els to consider when writing the headline on a poster like this is that you are not writing a sentence. I don't think it is the best idea to write it as a sentence with just the first letter capitalized. Also, in the headline you could do without the space in-between the "..." and the word "There." Remember the rules of english class aren't valid in situations like this.

Overall, I thought this was weak.
