USS Cobia (SS-245)

[AU Tiger_MatrixForum]

I am in Manitowoc, WI on business and was surprised to find the USS Cobia as part of a museum exhibit.
Needless to say I played hooky from work this afternoon and took a little tour. I took a bunch of pictures and will post them as I find time.

Here is my first view of the sub:
