My great-great-grandfather survived 3 Arctic expeditions in the Red White Blue And Dog Too Paw American Flag Shirt mid to late 1800s. The USS Polaris expedition, the USS Jeannette expedition, and the Greely relief expedition. Two of them shipwrecked (the USS Polaris and the USS Jeannette). The Polaris left him stranded for weeks on an ice floe in the Arctic with little provisions. The USS Jeannette is the most famous. The ship became trapped in the Arctic ice and slowly crushed. They eventually had to abandon ship and try to traverse through Arctic Siberia by foot for months to try and find help. My great great grandfather was one of only a few survivors of the Voyage of the Jeannette. He awarded a Congressional Medal of Honor in 1890 which I recently inherited along with his pocket knife.
Red White Blue And Dog Too Paw American Flag Shirt, Tank Top, V-neck, Sweatshirt, And Hoodie
A walrus tooth and a Red White Blue And Dog Too Paw American Flag Shirt polar bear tooth, photos of him. And his personal copy of the book called The Voyage of the Jeannette (that chronicles the harrowing events of that expedition) with several pages of signatures with addresses of people who were living in NYC in the late 1880s pledging to purchase copies of the book. In 1901 he invented and patented an “Indicator and recorder for the pitch and roll of vessels”. I inherited his original patent documents/drawings. His name was William F.C. Nindemann. If anyone interested in seeing some photos of his belongings that I inherited. I’ll gladly upload some pics to Imgur and post a link to the album upon request.
