Join the USS Silversides Submarine Museum for a powerful Memorial Day weekend event as we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We invite the community to an unforgettable day filled with history, remembrance, and unity. The event will feature family fun, an engine start of the WWII Gato-class Submarine, food, live entertainment, and a touching luminary walk at sunset.
A Memorial Ceremony will take place at 6pm, followed by the engine start.
