Abstract:
This article engages the photographic collection archived in Evan Bachner’s At Ease: Navy Men of World War II. I argue that this archive embodies myriad homonationalist intimacies through the reinforcement of historical images of White U.S. American queer-coded masculinity. I place its representations against a backdrop of global pornographic militarism, U.S. imperialism, and intimate Black refusal.
