Oh, yeah, Adolph. You can’t lick us that way. The oil and coal are hauling some stuff over to Africa, where you don’t want it. But we can keep warm with less fuel than we had last winter. We’re doing it at home, and we can do it here--warmer clothing is the answer--every day. That includes keeping feet warm and dry on the way to work, with rubbers, overshoes, and warm woolen socks.

In the air, on the surface, and under the sea, the Navy maintains the traditions on which it was founded. It will be be Our First Line of Defense.

Pictured in the photograph is an important unit of "Navy Ships behind the Scenes"--a destroyer tender with part of her flotilla lying alongside for their routine check-up and repairs. To most Americans the United States Navy is symbolized by the swift-cruising dreadnaughts--the ships of the line. But behind this fighting front in equally active operation is the fleet of auxiliaries and inshore craft, smaller in size, but no less vital to the protection of America's double coastline. The sketches illustrate the types of ships of this auxiliary fleet. These auxiliaries furnish the combatant ships with replacement parts, supply them with food, ammunition, and fuel, provide surgical and hospital attention, keep men and ships in fighting trim, and link the inshore to the coastal patrol. They are all vital to America's defense of the waters which encircle her shores. Your Navy Recruiting Station can tell you about the advantages you will derive from service aboard these or any ships of the United States Navy.
