Warner Brothers Meet the Fleet (1940) with George Reeves



“Meet the Fleet” is a 1940 Warner Brothers color short film about the Navy. It follows 3 recruits as they train for sea deployment to Hawaii. Ironically, the ship they sail on, the USS Pennsylvania was destined to be at Pearl Harbor during the attack on December 7, 1941. The film has great images of pre-WWII sailors and equipment and overall clean and wholesome 1940’s fun.

A LETTER TO THE EDITOR FROM BUCHENWALD CONCENTRATION CAMP…The following was written as a report to Sgt. Merle Miller, managing editor of YANK’s Continental Edition, by Cpl. Howard Katzander, YANK Staff Correspondent, and was not intended for publication. YANK feels, however, that this highly personal description and Katzander’s reaction to what he saw is the real story of the Buchenwald Concentration Camp at Weimar, Germany.
