When the United States was just a glimmer in the Founding Fathers’ eyes, everyone knew that eventually sea power would be a game-changing force. And they knew that Britain would wield its awe-inspiring navy to punish the rebel colonies. But the Patriots issued the Declaration of Independence, anyway, and frantically assembled the breakaway colonies’ first fleet. Since then, America’s Navy has evolved in incredible – and almost unbelievable – ways. Damn the torpedoes and jump into the waters of this crazy Navy quiz!
Long before anyone had ever built an airplane, ships were the way of the warrior. Empires like Britain and Spain used their galleons to control shipping lanes and coasts all over the world. Once America gained her independence, her Navy changed in a hurry. Do you know how the Navy has shifted in size and power in the past few centuries?
In the 20th century, two world wars completely overhauled the military, including the Navy. What was once an average fleet of boats morphed into a monstrous machine that could pummel targets anywhere on Earth. Let’s see if you’re fit to command the USS Enterprise or if you should be stuck on a garbage scow. Take this U.S. Navy quiz now!
