Menus from Ship to Shore

Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners on Navy ships and shore installations provide an excellent snapshot of military food service and life in the Navy. Although today's Navy cooks and bakers are preparing more health-conscious meals for sailors and their families, these menus from 1903 to 1982 provide a nostalgic glimpse for all those who remember a meal with fellow sailors.

These menus are part of the Library's collection of holiday menus.
