The USS Drum

The USS Drum

This is the continuation of the last post. As I said, I took so many pictures of the ship and sub that I had to divide them into two posts so this post contains the pictures of the sub.

Like the battleship this was also a self guided tours and it was also very fascinating. I forget how many crew were aboard the sub but I can tell you, it’s tight quarters.

After the sub we walked around and looked at the various planes and tanks they had on display then headed home.
