Now Hear This: We were tentatively scheduled to reopen for public visitation on Monday, June 29th. However, we have rescheduled our reopening to July 6th, conditional on regulations in effect at that time by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience as we continue to follow directives issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

PT Boat Memorial:

While the PT boat service constituted only a small fraction of the US Navy's operations in World War II, they inflicted major damage on enemy operations. This toll came at a heavy price, however; the Navy lost 69 boats, with 331 PT boaters killed in action.

A memorial scroll is on permanent display in the Newberry Hall PT exhibition building at Battleship Cove.
