Is what happends when you leave your WW2 submarines laying around outside with poor maintenance and upkeep.

Drum is finally getting a face lift. They recently installed high voltage receptacles near the boat to start welding repairs at the stern. Drum is the 2008 "Restoration Project" of the year for the Lockwood Internet Base of the USSVI. Next year they will pick a different museum boat that needs financial help and raise money for it.
