Torsk Volunteers Road Trip

USS BECUNA SS-319

February 20, 2000


 

 On Sunday, February 20, 2000 fifteen Torsk Volunteers made a road trip to Philadelphia to visit USS Becuna SS-319, as well as the Independence Seaport Museum and the cruiser USS Olympia. Our hosts Bob Palma and Jesse Lebovics gave us full access to the boat, and we certainly appreciate the generous hospitality they showed us! They even gave us a brand new electrical panel that they had extra, so we didn't have to steal anything!

Read on for the pictures from the visit!
