U.S.S Alabama

The U.S.S. Alabama Battleship Memorial Park is the home of the battleship Alabama and the submarine the U.S.S Drum. It also contains different models of airplanes. You can tour the ship, and submarine for 10. It is without a doubt one of the most interesting sites I have ever seen. I strongly encourage people of all ages to visit this site.

USS Alabama Battleship

It has, obviously, the USS Alabama, a huge WWII battleship, which is now in very shallow water (it makes you wonder how it got there), a submarine, which they don't let people in anymore because it was so badly damaged in hurricanes and tropical storms, a bunch of planes, tanks, and a bunch of guns.

The U.S.S. Drum was subsequently cleaned up and reopened to the public.
