Newport (Rhode Island) Sex Scandal (U.S. Navy) (jan 1, 1919 – jul 19, 1921)

Description:

"In the spring of 1919, officers at Newport (Rhode Island) Naval Training Station dispatched a squad of young enlisted men into the community to investigate the "immoral conditions" obtaining there. The decoys sought out and associated with suspected "sexual perverts," had sex with them, and learned all they could about homosexual activity in Newport" (Chuancey, "Christian Brotherhood or Sexual Perversion?," 189)
