USS Nahant (1862) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Nahant (1862)
The first USS ''Nahant'' was a ''Passaic''-class ironclad monitor of the United States Navy that saw service in the American Civil War and the Spanish–American War. ''Nahant'' was launched on October 7, 1862, by Harrison Loring, South Boston, Massachusetts, and commissioned on December 29, 1862, Commander John Downes in command. ==Civil War== Life aboard the Nahant during the Civil War was documented in a book titled "A Year on a Monitor and the Destruction of Fort Sumter" by Alvah F Hunter. In 1862 Hunter enlisted in the Union Navy, with difficulty as he was only 16. He served for a year on the Nahant as a cabin boy, keeping a careful diary. Later in life he wrote the book, which stands as one of the few detailed accounts of wartime routine on a monitor.
