The 1856 Beavertail Lighthouse in Jamestown, Rhode Island where John Baxter Jr. was stationed from 1970-1972. One time, while the family was enjoying a meal, a Navy helicopter crashed on the lawn. Fortunately, no one died, but the pilot was pretty shaken up by the experience. (Lighthouse Digest archives photo)
