ok, let's give this a try.
The USS Silversides Submarine Museum resides in Muskegon, Michigan on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan.



The Mission of the USS Silversides Submarine Museum is to honor the men and women of the military, preserve military history and provide experiences that educate the public about past and present military history and technology.


Silversides received twelve battle stars for World War II service, and was awarded one Presidential Unit Citation for cumulative action over four patrols. She is credited with sinking 23 ships, the third-most of any allied World War II submarine, behind only the USS Tang and USS Tautog. The tonnage of the ships sunk by Silversides amounted to 90,080 tons, second only to Tang's total.






Here is the range gauge on the 4" deck gun. Notice that it ends at 9800 yds.



here is the breech section of the 4 incher. due to the morning sun and deck limitations, this was the best i could do.



here is the infamous Mk14 with the Mk16 head.



Here is the 40mm AA gun. No one is allowed above the deck or the conning tower or the exterior bridge.




Here is the 20mm. Again, due to the sun and lack of available deck space, this was the best i could do.




here is the sail. Notice the two scopes and the S-band radar receiver. Search Lights too.
