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.
