Excerpt from Our Navy's Part in the Great WarThe growth of our Navy to more than half a million Officers and men, manning two thousand vessels, has been almost phenomenal, but no less so than the spirit and efficiency these men have displayed, their courage and enterprise in facing every danger and performing every duty imposed upon them.There has been no more striking instance of sea power than in this war, in which the Allies held control of the seas and, in spite of ruthless submarine warfare and the activity of raiders, at last compelled the surrender of the German High Seas Fleet. It is gratifying that our own Navy had a part in accomplishing this result, that it has played an important role in the greatest of wars and written a new and brilliant page in history. Stronger, larger, more powerful and efficient than ever before, the Greater Navy Is prepared to render greater service not only to the American people but also to preserve the peace of the world.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
