Visited the H.L. Hunley submarine restoration center. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._L._Hunley_(submarine)
Hunley was the first submarine to sink another boat during a battle. Unfortunate they didn't live to tell their story. The Hunley was found in 2000 and raised for preservation and restoration.
Cutaway of what the Hunley would have been like, except this is 10% bigger. This was used for the movie "The Hunley".
Submarine in the preservation tank. Pictures were hard to get with the glare, being underwater, and behind glass.
