Description
During World War II, this vintage US Navy submarine, the USS Pampanito, sank six enemy ships and damaged four others. The submarine is on display at Fishermans Wharf in San Francisco, California, USA. Onboard tours near Pier 39 in San Francisco give visitors an idea of what life was like for the crew.

Shot in the summer of 2009 and converted to black-and-white (no tint). Also offered in color in this album. Absolutely no photo-retouching to the ship itself. Minimal noise reduction in order to preserve historical details.
Featured on the homepages of Premium FAA Artists, Seen But Not Noticed, California Coast Photography, Memories and Nostalgia, Beauty, and 3-A-Day Waiting Room Art, October 2014. My thanks!

Thank you, James, for featuring this oldie-but-goodie in Beauty. Interesting World War I submarine! Hope many will take a good look.

Alexandria, thank you for another wonderful feature in Memories and Nostalgia. This certainly takes one back--to before most everyone still here had been born! My paternal grandfather served off the coast of San Diego on a ship during WWI, so I share it in his honor.
