When we first saw the sub, we were so surprised! It was longer than an N.F. L. football field. We were also so surprised when we saw how many guns and torpedoes and weaponry she had. We’ll give you interesting information about the USS Pampanito Submarine which includes a video tour, pictures and much more. Hope you enjoy it!
