"I want it understood that if it is not warm it is 'hot.'" 🔥

So says Clinton H. Lyeth, a midshipman when USS Constitution served as training for the United States Naval Academy, in his journal, dated August 19, 1869. The West Virginia-born Lyeth entered the US Naval Academy on June 24, 1868, and was likely a teenage boy (as were most midshipmen). He recounts ten months of his time on USS Constitution at the Academy in 1869, including daily activities, exam results, training cruises, poems, jokes, sketches, and... reports on the weather!

Lyeth graduated from the Academy in June 1872 and rose to Master by 1879. He was assigned to USS Constitution while she served as a training ship in New York, 1880-1881. ⚓

What would Commodore William Bainbridge look like today? The Commander of USS Constitution and a national hero of the War of 1812 might be a modern Navy fighter pilot or astronaut. Check out this AI-generated image based on the classic Gilbert Stuart portrait! 👨‍🚀
