I've toured many submarines incl. WWII & cold war boats both from the U.S. and USSR. This one is interesting because it was built early in the cold war and still has some of the WWII boat grittiness.
Fifty-five years ago, the submarine Growler was commissioned on August 30, 1958 at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. Be sure to stop by for a walk through the sub when you visit the Museum.
Good to get some insight to some history you can't see anywhere else in the US. This nuclear submarine was only operational for 6 years. They couldn't tell me how much it cost to build.
