Your Country Needs You—Join the Navy!/ We have ships but we need men/ We did not start this fight but we are going to help finish it/ You are a man, not according to what you say, but what you do/ We must fight this war, not lying down but standing up—Don't wait for the next man to make up his mind–enlist Now!
