I love this painting depicting the first Thanksgiving.
Six sided box is all each pilgrim family could bring from Europe.

Regular naval chief petty officer. Assigned to this duty on the Nautilus for 2 years. This man left on one of his assignments 2 weeks after his first baby was born, and didn't get back to see the baby until it was 6 months old.
