Exhibits

Major Exhibits
The USS COD Submarine is the last remaining WWII submarine that has not been modified from her original wartime configuration and is thus a "time machine". The submarine is in an excellent state of restoration.

Exhibits of 07
A very rare WWII Torpedo Transporter has been restored and is on display on our beach. This vehicle is used to transport torpedoes to the submarine from storage areas away from the pier. A WWII Mark-14 is being carried by the transporter.
