#OTD in 1898, a former New York City police commissioner who had walked away from a Navy Department desk stood on the deck of a packed steamship and got his first look at the war he had insisted on joining.
Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders had sailed from Tampa on June 14 aboard the "Yucatán", nearly a thousand men jammed into berths meant for a few hundred. Roosevelt compared the lower hold to the "Black Hole of Calcutta." Rations were short, the sea was rough, and seasickness emptied many a stomach.
Then, on Monday, June 20, the jagged, barren mountains of Cuba rose off the bow. Colonel Leonard Wood thought they looked like ranges he'd crossed in Arizona; Roosevelt thought they resembled the mountains of Montana. At night the men watched unfamiliar stars wheel overhead and hailed the Southern Cross as it climbed above the horizon.
These were cowboys, miners, Ivy Leaguers, and lawmen who had trained barely a month. Within a week, many of their names would be in headlines across the country. For now, they simply leaned on the rail and watched a foreign coast slide closer — a quiet moment before the storm.

They successfully recorded the first-ever neutrino interactions in 1956!
