United States Naval Construction Battalions, better known as the Navy Seabees, form the U.S. Naval Construction Forces. The Seabee nickname is a heterograph of the initial letters “CB” from the words “Construction Battalion”. They are also sometimes called “Dirt Sailors”, a U.S. Navy nickname for personnel, often Seabees or expeditionary combat command forces, who operate on land rather than at sea. They build infrastructure, operate heavy equipment, and support combat operations, often in deployed, dusty environments and Sail the 7 Dirt Seas.

During World War II “CB’s” were plank-holders (original members) of both the Naval Combat Demolition Units and the Underwater Demolition Teams, In addition, Seabees served as elements of the United States Marine Corps, organized in specialized, self-sustaining, advanced base units known as Lions (major bases), Cubs (minor bases), and Acorns (airfields). They also provided the manpower for the top secret CWS Flame Tank Group. Today the Seabees have many special task assignments starting with Camp David and the Naval Support Unit at the Department of State. Seabees serve under both Commanders of the Naval Surface Forces Atlantic/Pacific fleets as well as on many base Public Works and USN diving commands. WWII Naval Officers assigned to Naval Construction Battalions from the Civil Engineer Corps, Medical Corps, Dental Corps and Supply Corps had a Silver Seabee on their Corps insignia. Naval Construction Battalions were conceived of as replacements for civilian construction companies in combat zones after the attack on Pearl Harbor. At the time civilian contractors had roughly 70,000 men working U.S.N. contracts overseas. International law made it illegal for civilian workers to resist an attack. Doing so would classify them as guerrillas and could lead to summary execution. The formation of the Seabees amidst the aftermath of the Battle of Wake Island inspired the backstory for the World War II movie “The Fighting Seabees”. They also feature prominently in the wartime musical drama (and subsequent film) South Pacific. Check out this stunning CB Military Bulldozer Jet Black Lithograph art by Squadron Posters!
