Hope this goes through okay.

From Russia land fall was at Dutch Harbor. Here is the Crystal Symphony docked at Dutch Harbor.

The Russian Orthodox Church still has a strong influence up and down the Alaskan coast.
The Russians translated the bible into the local Indian dialects and didn’t suppress local

to go into the church but here is an outside view. Note the eagle on top of the cross on the dome:
