It makes sense that papa lived in Texas, because it’s next to the ocean. He
worked on a submarine, so Corpus Christi was the perfect location. That’s
why it’s so weird that he was later moved by the Navy to Arkansas. Arkansas
is what’s called a landlocked state, because it doesn’t border the ocean.
Most of the states in the United States are like this. But that doesn’t mean
there’s no water, of course. It has lakes, and the really long Mississippi
River, which is between it and Mississippi. We don’t have much information,
because like I said, the military has to be really secretive, but after papa
died, my dad and I were looking through his things when we found something
interesting. It was a photo of him and some of his Navy buddies when they
were young. They were smiling in front of the river, and what looked like a
boat behind them. Except that the boat wasn’t above the water very much. It
actually looked like a submarine! The Mississippi River is pretty deep, but
not really deep enough for a normal sub. Again, no one can tell us anything,
so shh, be quiet, but we think that he was testing special technology. They
might have come up with a submarine that can move in shallower waters. It
would be interesting to know if they could get something like that to work.
