This 1918 Thanksgiving menu from USS Georgia (BB-15) serves up a unique blend of the familiar and unexpected.

In 1918, bananas were still considered to be an exotic fruit in the United States, and cigars, a luxury item typically reserved for officers, were served to the entire crew. The inclusion of these items on the Thanksgiving menu serves to illustrate the special nature of the meal.

Interestingly, just 12 days after the Thanksgiving meal, USS Georgia and the crew began a series of voyages from Virginia to France, aiding in the effort to bring American troops home. Between December 1918 and June 1919, the ship played a vital role in reuniting nearly 6,000 soldiers with their families back in the U.S.
