Come aboard and get an in-depth tour of the World War II-era guns and torpedo tubes on our three vessels. Visitors on the Gun Tour will join our Curator for a guided experience to visit areas that are not available on the regular tour route.

Step inside the 5"/38 single gun mount and learn the mechanics and functions of the various weaponry aboard USS The Sullivans including the K-Gun Launcher, 20 MM Oerlikon, 40 MM Bofors Twin Mount, depth charges, and hedge hog launcher. On board USS Little Rock, visit the twin 5"/38 handling room and the 6"/47 barbette magazine and powder storage spaces. The tour will end on board USS Croaker with an in depth explanation of the Gato/Hunter Killer torpedo tubes. 

Each tour will last approximately 1 hour and will be limited to 10 people. All visitors must purchase general admission tickets in order to participate in the add-on tour. 

When touring most areas of the ship, visitors should expect to traverse narrow passageways, be able to step over significantly raised thresholds, and climb up and down very steep ladders. We recommend that you wear comfortable clothes, closed-toe shoes, and bring a flashlight. Due to the length of the tour and the spaces that will be visited, this tour is not recommended for those under 11 years of age.
