Description
English: Pearl Harbor, Hawaii (Oct. 5, 2004) — Marisco Ltd. workers repair the aging hull of the decommissioned Balao-class submarine USS Bowfin (SS-287) at their shipyard near the former Naval Air Station Barber's Point, during a restoration project. Bowfin has served as a floating museum for 23 years, and is moored next to the USS Arizona Memorial Visitor's Center. Known as the "Pearl Harbor Avenger," Bowfin was launched one year to the day after Dec. 7, 1941 and was credited with sinking 44 enemy ships during the course of her nine extraordinary war patrols.
