The Seabees are the military engineers of the United States Navy. The soldiers of these units are part of construction battalions (literally construction battalions) and are responsible for building and maintaining the navy's infrastructure in times of peace and war. The name Seabee, which literally means sea bee (with the association with the industriousness of its members), is actually the pronunciation of the acronym CB, the initials of Construction Battalion. The units were founded on March 5, 1942. Their motto, in Latin, is Construimus, Batuimus ("We Build, We Fight" (the unofficial one is "We Can Do It!"). The Seabees fought in World War II, enlisting up to 325,000 men; in the Pacific Theater they built 111 airfields and 441 piers, 100 million gallons of fuel tanks, housing 1.5 million men, and hospital beds for 70,000 patients. They also served in the Korean War.
