America didn't use steamships during World War II. The Japanese people's first exposure to steamships was in 1853 when the U.S. sent Commodore Matthew C. Perry (brother of Oliver Hazard Perry, the naval hero from the war of 1812) to pry open the doors of isolationist Japan. The Japanese were more or less forced by America (due to superior technology of the Americans) to open up to trade with America and the west.
