Wartime San Francisco

from Who Knew?! Hosted by Who Knew?!

Welcome back to another week of Who Knew!? This week wasn't our usual but we couldn't leave out such a huge part of our trip! We mostly dug into the history but touched on a few ghosties at three famous wartime locations in San Francisco: The SS Jeremiah O'Brien, the USS Pampanito, and Fort Point. All three were instrumental to our military ranging from the Civil War to WWII and one is still in full use!
