USS PAMPANITO
Visited the WW2 Balao class submarine USS PAMPANITO while in San Francisco in September. This is the submarine that starred in 'Down Periscope' with Kelsey Grammer, which I still think is the most realistic movie about Navy life I've ever seen. She's moored at the same pier as the Liberty Ship JEREMIAH O'BRIEN and is well worth a visit.
