During World War II, the United States Government used the poster medium to produce tens of thousands of different images in support of the effort of the troops around the globe. The United States Navy played a vital role in allowing for troop movement to Europe as well as serving to limit the Axis in its efforts to conquer more territory. Here, the power of the Navy is shown in formation of the American Flag.Navy Day traces its roots to the disarmament years between WWI and WWII. It was established in 1922 by the Navy League of the United States. October 27th was chosen as the day to honor the Navy for its connection to the 1775 report to first purchase ships for the American Revolution; a step that was a precursor to the official formation of the Navy.
