Sailors Salute
November 1918: Airmen and sailors cheering the King from the aircraft carrier Argus, on his visit to the Fleet at Rosyth, Scotland. The carrier is painted in dazzle camouflage. Dazzle camouflage was designed by Norman Wilkinson to confuse enemy ships. Designed not so much to hide vessels, the camouflage was intended to make it difficult to pinpoint the direction in which a ship was travelling. (Photo by Topical Press Agency/Getty Images)
