Ship's Mess Deck with 'First Division' Canvas Cover and Kitten, US Navy, China Station, 1930s
A ship's kitten perches on the First Division's mess table aboard a U.S. Navy vessel serving on the China Station during the 1930s. Small, everyday details like this stenciled canvas cover and shipboard mascot bring the routine of pre-WWII naval life into focus. Project: 218176
