The World War II fleet submarine USS Bowfin will reopen to the public at Pearl Harbor on Saturday after returning from dry-dock maintenance. The 80-year-old submarine serves as an exhibit at the Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum. In September it was temporarily closed and towed from Pearl Harbor to Pacific Shipyards International at Honolulu Harbor for scheduled dry-dock maintenance.

Thank you for the post. I had an uncle assigned to one of seven subs that entered the waters around Japan during WWII. Only one made it home. On his last mission on the same sub he was awarded a silver star for his actions during a surface operation. I have always wondered how one could deal with the conditions of living and working in that environment. A-holes and elbows 24/7.
