National Submarine Memorial, OMSI

Another place I had never visited before in Portland was OMSI, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. In the end, I’d say it was more for children, although the movie we saw about national parks was excellent.

This is the propeller from the USS Blueback, the US Navy’s last non-nuclear, fast attack submarine that was featured in “The Hunt for Red October” and now is a National Submarine Memorial.
