Uss Cod-224

Can't wait for Silent Hunter 4.

SH3 was absolutely fantastic as everyone knows.

Just thought I would mention the USS COD.

A Gato class Submarine.

It's a museum in Cleveland, Ohio...USA.

I've visited it a few times and it's great.

Check out it's website. It's got its history and It's also got links to many other US Subs and their history's.

Yep, I live in the Cleveland area, have been there, and have posted pictures from my trip there a few times. Very nice. If you go there you have to buy the pin which has the boats logo of the torpedo crushing through a skull......very nice.

Maybe this year when they open up they will sell copies of Silent Hunter 4???

Nice Link!

I visited the USS Drum (Gato class) in Mobile this week. Here are my pics:

@ Gino: That first pic of the USS COD is a nice one. It's a little painful to look at: a little like looking at a wild animal in captivity. She needs to be sailing in the Pacific and soaking up a little of that tropic climate!

@ Cowboy: Welcome to Subsim, sailor!

The Cod is definately a beauty and I hear that she is still in her complete WWII appearance. If i ever get a chance to visit Cleveland I will have to spend about a day at the Cod!

Is the Conning Tower of the Cod open to visitors? I've visited so many WWII Subs that have it closed and locked to visitors. Kind of dissapointing. Luckily the Drum's was open.
