Where can I find . . .

[BettyRubble]

My son is currently fascinated by submarines and the like. Wants to tour one. Anyone have any idea if there are any subs on the east coast to be toured? I'd settle for a large military aircraft carrier if needed. I'm kinda clueless on where to start the search.

As always, thank you for your help!

The Becuna is docked at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia. It's a diesel sub that was in service from WWII to 1969.

I thought there was something in Manhattan . . we drove by it in Feb when we were doing the touristy thing. Didn't realize it was a permanent thing. Is the one at the BIH the rinky dink looking thing? I know that is like really rude . . . and I can't imagine guys actually living on that thing!!!! Guess I just expected those things to be bigger!

the WW2 submarine Ling is berthed somewhere in Northern NJ.
It was in the Hackensack river, but there has been some talk of relocating it.
