What it is
A colour lithograph Howard Giles drew for the Publications Section of the United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation in Philadelphia, 1918, 100 by 137 cm, a sheet wider than it is tall.
Why it matters
The Emergency Fleet Corporation built the ships for the army in France, and this sheet held the soldiers up to the shipyard men as their standard.
What to notice
Soldiers wielding bayonets, with the American flag and a flame-lit sky above them.
The yard, told to match the trench.
