We went to the Living History Day at the USS Batfish for my oldest.

It was his birthday Monday so we wanted to be sure and do something he liked that weekend.

He loves learning about battles and especially the World War 1 &2 so this was perfect.

My husband was able to come with us this time!

He said he had not been on a naval vessel in a long time.

My youngest boy kept asking how powerful all the weapons were.

Thanks for answering all of those questions!
