During World War II, sailors trained aboard Navy PT boats at the motor torpedo boat center in Melville, Rhode Island. An American flag flies above the small craft as crew members stay alert on deck, scanning the sky and horizon. PT boats were fast, lightly built vessels used for patrol and surprise attacks in coastal waters after Pearl Harbor. Training focused on speed, coordination, and constant readiness, preparing young crews for long hours and sudden action at sea.
