You might be interested in the USS Pampanito, a functioning Balao Class fleet sub moored as part of the San Francisco Maritime National Park. She was used in the filming of "Down Periscope":

It's good to hear there's another sub out there still functioning and being taken care of, but don't you have to wait til the river stops burning before she can be take out?...

Hehe, the trick is to stay under the slick, just don't burn up the periscope heads

Sub Sim commandos unite in Cleveland. We're commandeering the Cod for a little spin around the lake.

Is there any truth to the rumor that when the Cod fires up that 5-inch gun they'll be aiming at Cincinnati?...

No, Pittsburgh.

Well, I've figured out what I'm doing monday, with or without the new girlfriend. Be a good day to do the science center and Rock hall too.
