This World War II recruiting poster implies that joining the Navy would make you like
the guy loading shells into the gun. I'm sure, however, that more than few recruits
were more interested in getting a man like that than they were in becoming one.
Bodybuilder Alan Stephan, who became Mr America 1946, was said to have been the model for this poster and several others….:)
ReplyDeleteThank you for such an interesting fact! I have posted two photos of Mr. Stephan, one nude and one in trunks.
