Lonely Planet review

The circular plaza is bordered by masts sporting semaphore flags; on its western side a sculpted seaman - the Lone Sailor - hunches down in his peacoat as a tribute to sea service. The Naval Heritage Center is on the same grounds and displays artifacts and ship models, and has a meditation room and a Navy Memorial Log. At daily, its theater screens the gung-ho At Sea , which dramatically depicts battle-group maneuvers.
