Naval War College Review

Authors

Abstract

The article examines the attention the navy received during the debate over the ratification of the Constitution in 1787-1788.1 It rests on the normative supposition that naval personnel who have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution will have a serious interest in the organic connection between their chosen branch of military service and the document they are sworn to uphold.
