Vinyl and a different kind of sub
« on: 17 Sep 2017, 10:48 pm »
On temporary assignment for next few months, working and living in Cleveland, OH. Making the most of it I've been out and about enjoying the many activities around town. Today I walked down to the lake (Erie) and visited the World War II U.S.S. Cod Submarine, now a museum.



Among the usual expected accoutrements, such as the torpedo room



I was surprised when I came upon this sweet rig



You can see there are tubes inside, under the grid on the right. Never knew the brave men who manned these stealthy beasts were entertained by spinning records under the water. Fascinating.

So much for silent running.  Must have been retrofitted after the war.

  • To whom more was given more will be required.
    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.
