USS Clamagore | Charleston | South Carolina

 
This submarine was built for World War II, but didn't get finished in time for action.  It spent time in Key West, Charleston and New London. 
 
 
This is the galley, also known as a kitchen.


Dining room - I'm assuming they ate in shifts.

 
Captain's bunk.
 


Radio room full of equipment that would be much smaller with today's technology.

 
Four engines powered the sub, 2 on each side of this area.
 
 


Small hatches made you step high and bend over to get through.


Berths for the torpedoes.
 

 
 
This is not the place for a claustrophobic person!


The sub was tied to the dock, unlike the aircraft carrier, which has been stuck on the bottom for some time.
