Special Episode for Independence Day!
Today finds the USS Batfish at rest in a memorial park in Muskogee, Oklahoma, where she serves as a museum ship. The Balao-class submarines became a real nightmare for the Japanese Navy during World War II.

Watch our video and find out!
I remember reading last year floods were getting so bad that a museum submarine was once again afloat. Think the flood was in Oklahoma and it was the Batfish that was afloat once more.
