Comments:

Your face here. Seeking young talented female nurses to light the cigarettes of our young American military men who are in need of TLC after a long fought battle. The man could be your son, your brother, your boyfriend, while the nurse could be your daughter, your sister, your girlfriend. The anonymity is part of the marketing ploy here. The injured soldier’s head is wrapped in a bandage, but he guides the nurse’s hand, which holds the lit match, to his unlit cigarette which hangs in his mouth. She lights the cigarette as if it is a treatment.
