"To celebrate the USMC's birthday in 1950 a Marine helicopter squadron wanted to give each of its men in Korea an entire duck for dinner. To get enough birds helicopters used their prop wash to herd a flock into a lake area where hungry Marines were hiding behind hunting blinds. The squadron's menu that night had a roast duck for everyone. #SeaStorySaturday"

After spending a few days coaling performing minor maintenance and relaxing the crew of Emden said goodbye to their hosts and then continued attacking British ships"

"A 1900-year-old gravestone for a Roman sailor recently was discovered in the backyard of a house in New Orleans. Rather than being tantalizing evidence of an ancient Roman naval expedition the gravestone is now known to have been in the collection of an Italian museum until the 1940s. The artifact disappeared after the museum was heavily damaged during WWII. It likely was taken by a serviceman who brought it back to the U.S. to be used as a garden decoration"

"It's National Metric Day. In 1794 British privateers captured French scientist Joseph Dombey who was sailing to the U.S. at the behest of Thomas Jefferson to deliver kilogram and meter standards for the newly developed metric system. Dombey died in captivity and the standards never made it to Jefferson. Some historians believe the incident may have contributed to the metric system's failure to be fully adopted by the U.S. #NationalMetricDay"
