Best Answer

Melville was in the US Navy for a brief time. Sailors then were enlisted for a cruise, and their engagement ended when the ship returned to port. Melville joined the crew of the USS United States when she was in Hawaii, and sailed in her for several months during her return to the US, which was in October 1844.
