This past week I wrote about the White House Christmas dinner during the war and mentioned they were having clear soup and hard sauce. I was unfamiliar with both of these items and looked them up.
CLEAR SOUP-- Primarily liquid, usually served warm and combining ingredients like meat and vegetables.
HARD SAUCE-- Sweet, rich dessert sauce made by creaming butter and sugar with liquor, often rum.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
