Description
In 1938, through the Works Progress Administration (WPA)—presumably by way of its Federal Arts Project (FAP), the mess hall and gymnasium of the now-former Heslar Naval Armory in Indianapolis “were decorated with 12-by-15-foot (3.7 by 4.6 m) murals depicting famous naval battles and events.”
