Coming just seven weeks after the signing of the Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay aboard the USS Missouri, this Navy Day celebration was in effect, a monumental victory lap.In the late 1930’s, and early 1940’s, Americans were divided over whether to join Britain and France in the war with Germany. It wasn’t until the surprise attacks on Pearl Harbor in December, 1941 that the U.S. would be forced into World War II. When U.S. troops were sent to fight in the war effort, hundreds of artists were commissioned to create patriotic posters that would rally support on the home front.Americans were vigorously encouraged to buy war bonds and take factory jobs to support military production needs. While men were sent to battlefields, women were encouraged to take “non-traditional” jobs such as riveters, electricians, and welders. The popular image of “Rosie the Riveter” came from this effort to recruit women into these roles.To preserve materials and resources for the war effort, patriotic posters advocating carpooling to save on gas, cautioned against wasting food, and urged people on the home front to collect scrap metal to be recycled into military materials. Rationing programs were implemented in the spring of 1942, and limits were set on everyday purchases.Many posters presented positive patriotic messages, while others used fear to rally support for the Allies and cautioned against leaking information to spies. One of the most famous sayings of the times was "Loose lips sink ships." Graphic images frequently depicted a blood-thirsty Adolph Hitler and others contained derogatory images of Japanese soldiers and leaders with menacing, exaggerated features. Today, these posters provide a glimpse into the nation's environment during World War II and how propaganda was used to link the home front to the front lines.
