Album Page: Boat Racing at Guantanamo Bay (1905), Fort Jefferson Interior, and Mississippi River Entrance Lighthouse
Dated 1905, this album page anchors the timeline of a U.S. Navy cruiser's Caribbean and Gulf training cruise: sailors competing in a boat race at the newly established naval station of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba; views inside the massive brick fortification of Fort Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas; and a screw-pile lighthouse marking the entrance to the Mississippi River.
