Christmas forgotten

Few of us who served on the USS Pickens and/or had relatives on her are around today.  For some reason I tried to remember Christmas on board the ship but could not, although Thanksgiving in 1944 was described as a feast.  Three days after Christmas 1944 we loaded on troops and began training for Iwo Jima.  If any body can refresh my memory, let me hear from  you.
