Jeff is absolutely right, and until now i never gave it a second thought. Going back and remembering the USS COD walk-around. there is no second WTD in the face of the tower. Only the vertical access hatch to the bridge. (Looking at the 1st pic in thread.)
Saying that, there were two main manufacturers building US fleet boats, and there were distinct design differences, and we do not actually "Know" which sub the pics are modelled from.
