USS Cobia Submarine Trip, Febuary 2009

On this trip, we went to the USS Cobia in Manitowoc, WI. We got to learn all about WWII, the history of the USS Cobia, and what live was like aboard it. Then we got to sleep in it.

On our way there we stopped at Big Bear Hobby shop. Some scouts bought some models or books.

Before going in the sub, we went to pizza pit for a delicious meal.

We got to explore the ship, and saw the torpedo bays, galley, officers' and crews' quarters, engine room and others. We also got a look at the ammunition.

After some went to bed, others who wanted to see more of the ship went on the "Nook and Crannies" tour. We got to go see parts of the ship the pubic doesn't normally see, in the hidden areas of the ship down under.

That entrance was underneath an eating table. The entrances were everywhere!
We left early in the morning, and believe me, we all smelled heavily of submarine.
