Using the pictures from the 1943-45 Naval Recognition Manual as a
base, I plan to cover the five major powers of the war: United States,
United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, and Italy. As the manual was
designed specifically for recognition, it includes classes of warships,
not individual ships. Thus, all the ships presented here are lead ships
of their class.
