Summary

• Crewmen and officers of the submarine Icefish eat a meal while seated at tables in the crews' quarters at the Navy Barracks on 16th Street, adjacent to Manitowoc Shipbuilding Company. This photograph was taken May 16, 1944 when actor Spencer Tracy and his brother and business manager Carroll Tracy visited the shipyards at the invitation of Richard W. Peterson, Commander of the Icefish. Tracy spent much of the day with the Icefish crew, including this meal at which he is seated third from the far end in the second row, beneath the man leaning over.
