USS Pampanito
Pier 45
San Francisco, CA 94133

map | website | comment

San Francisco is home to one of the "most popular historic vessels in the country"; it is a giant WWII submarine that sank six Japanese ships. Now, it's a living museum where you and your grandchildren can marvel at this immense symbol of military brawniness. Submarines are inherently fascinating to kids, and any grandchildren learning about World War II in history class should definitely see the USS Pampanito for a well-rounded lesson in the past.
