Really The Friendly Manual that tells you on the last page to shut up!

And also on the inside cover. So shut up already, before any Tommies get wind of this.

That style of illustration is actually pretty common in military circles. If you want a real retro laugh:
PS Magazine
This is what happens when you draft cartoonists into the military.

Oh no! Preventive maintainance! No wonder they needed something like that comic!

Not "needed"; that magazine is still in publication, though a little less explicitly hysterical.

You probably know that military service is long periods of boredom, interrupted by a few seconds of terror. PM (preventive maintainance) is the passtime inbetween to assure that you are properly bored.
Like medicine with a foul taste, PM is best administrered with a piece of sugar like this comic. This way your grunts may actually remember to do some of those things.

Typical German over-engineering. The British version of the manual would be one line:
"Light blue touch paper, and retire."
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Nothing sexist about teaching them to treat their missiles like ladies.

I desperately need THIS as well!

I had one - it was great! Only problem was I tried to use it for Bacon, and ... let's just say it didn't survive the experience.

Oh, they are genuine products - but check carefully when they arrive, the manufacturer has been known to ship empty boxes... 
(A bit like MiniScribe did with HDDs in the late 1980's before going bust when it was found out that house bricks don't hold data well.)

I've never actually tried a rémoulade, what with mayonnaise and anchovies being very high on my list of unfavourite food-stuffs, but I expect I'd enjoy it somewhat more than processed cheese with a topping of ink!

I'm going to print Cheasus on mine and sell it on fleabay to get rich before the sheep figure out anyone can do this.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

That was the time we finally got the heating and hot water sorted. After tripping the boiler because there was too much air in the heating loop and wiring in the thermostat for the hot water the wrong way round, we finally got everything working at 2:30 am.
Then the plumber hit a neighbour's car pulling out of the parking.
After 4 hours sleep, I'm up and in Londinium for a client meeting. Nothing important, just a planning meeting with their new CTO...
