We wanted to go to the naval nuclear submarine base cuz I had been here on a tour with the state Tech Prep Directors in 1999. I knew Mike would love it but with 9.11 no more tours unless backgroud check and cleared in advance.
We settled for a trip to the submarine museum in historic St, Mary's.
The video was great. The confederate sub, Hunley operated by 8 men turning a hand crank was the first sub in combat. It destroyed the Housatonic ship off Charlston but the skeleton crew never were found until 2000. It is now being restored.
