 Jeff... Funny that you should mention anti-submarine armament; the Yorktown was changed to an ASW platform in the late 60's. On one of the tours we got to see the topedo shop. And , some of the aircraft were used for ASW.

We also got to see the fore and aft torpedo rooms on the Clamagore. Samuel thought it was cool that the crew slept on bunks above the torpedos.

Scott... The H L Hunley has not been moved to Patriots Point yet. I did see a sign for a Hunley display but we didn't get to go there.
