USS Cod Submarine Memorial, Cleveland (must see)
The USS Cod Submarine Memorial features the docked U.S.S. Cod, which enjoys National Historic Register status. Self-guided tours are available, allowing you to gain an appreciation for the sailors that served on this vessel. This submarine is permanently docked on Lake Erie, and you will enjoy the lake views as you visit this area.
This submarine is one of the most well-preserved vessels open to the public. The ship features original hatches and ladders instead of having had doors and staircases installed. Preserving these original features has helped maintain the submarine's quality and structural integrity.
Visitors can rotate a five-inch deck gun, which volunteers will mock-fire for visitors. Another feature that visitors enjoy is the Mark IV Torpedo Data Computer, which has been fully restored. The volunteer crew will even fire up the submarine's working engines on occasion to demonstrate how effectively they work.
