Gas Mask Training WWII 1944

This is clipped from the 1944 film, Gas, of the Private Snafu series. Private Snafu is the title character of a series of black-and-white American instructional cartoon shorts produced between 1943 and 1945 during World War II. The character was created by director Frank Capra, chairman of the U.S. Army Air Force First Motion Picture Unit, and some of the shorts were written by Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel. The United States Army hired Warner Bros. animation studio. Most of the Private Snafu shorts were educational - through his irresponsible behavior, Snafu demonstrates to soldiers what not to do while at war.

I love how funny and spooky it is at the same time. When the gas says 'No mask", it gives me chills.
