Shipbuilding (Norfolk Navy Yard). These are some of the 26,000 men whose hands are fashioning powerful new additions to Uncle Sam's rapidly expanding naval forces. A few miles away at the yards of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company, other thousands are also coming off their shifts. This scene is typical of dozens of shipyards throughout the nation. Shipyard workers have a lot to smile about, for invariably they have done their work so well and efficiently that production is ahead of schedule
