USA: 'Find the Range of your Patriotism by Enlisting in the Navy'. First World War naval recruitment lithograph poster by Vojtech Preissig (31 July 1873 - 11 June 1944), US Navy, 1918. Prior to the outbreak of World War I, military recruitment in the US was conducted primarily by individual states. Upon entering the war, however, the federal government took on an increased role, using five basic appeals to motivate these campaigns: patriotism (the most prevalent theme), job/career/education, adventure/challenge, social status and travel.
