    The When the United States entered WWI in April 1917, the federal government created the Emergency Fleet Corporation (EFC) to construct a fleet of merchant ships. The EFC hired the American International Shipbuilding Corporation to build and operate the largest shipyard in the world at
    Hog
    Island
    , near
    Philadelphia
    and various other Shipyard locations along the eastern seaboard.
    This badge identified the wearer as a member of the shipbuilding team and permitted entrance to the shipyards.
