The Kodiak Naval Operating Base later the Seventeenth Naval District was formally established in April 1941 as were Army coastal defense forces nearby at Fort Greely both placed on alert after the attack on Pearl Harbor. After the Japanese landings at Kiska and Attu in June 1942 Kodiak's carriers and submarines played critical roles in the joint campaigns with Canada to secure them. Captain William Rhodes the author of the "Acknowledgement" that serves as preface to What's Cooking in Kodiak had been part of the original study team in 1938 thereafter had served on numerous carriers and as an air fleet commander during the War and returned to command the naval station in August 1952. His wife is the contributor of a recipe for Filipino Style Fish on page 177. The earliest date however that one of the illustrators Martha Bolling can be placed there - as the wife of a navy airman and instructor at a summer arts school - is 1955. The contributor of a recipe for Lemon Souffle on page 69 Alice Watson Estabrook would have departed Kodiak in 1959 with her husband William Sears Estabrook who served for three years as inspector general at the Kodiak base before his retirement. ~ The Seventeenth Naval District was disestablished on 30 June 1971 during an overhaul of the entire administrative system and in 1972 the site was turned over to the United States Coast Guard. Today the Naval Operating Base and Fort Greely form part of a National Historic Landmark on the National Register in recognition of the roles played by men and women stationed there during World War II. ~ White plastic comb holding blue and white covers the front panel illustrated with a fanciful kettle wearing a chef's hat; with some edge-wear and a crease to the lower front fore-corner.
