Lonely Planet review for USS Pampanito

Talk about a survivor: this WWII-era US Navy submarine completed six wartime patrols, sunk six Japanese ships (including two carrying British and Australian POWs), battled three others and lived to tell the tale. Submariners’ stories of tense moments in underwater stealth mode will have you holding your breath – caution claustrophobics – and all those cool brass knobs and mysterious hydraulic valves make 21st-century technology seem way overrated.
