Muskogee, Oklahoma, could very well
be the last place in America you
would expect to find a famous World
War II submarine. Until you see the
U.S.S. Batfish, that is.
The Batfish is the centerpiece of a
fascinating and well-run War
Memorial Park in Muskogee, and it is
absolutely worth the visit. In fact, this
is one of the best places to explore
the history of World War II anywhere in
America.
