https://community.aarp.org/t5/Our-Front-Porch/Interesting-Things-We-ve-Seen-On-The-Internet/m-p/2616496#M88877 <P>Wisconsin is a leader in military and private ship building including million dollar yachts. We spent several weekends in Door&nbsp; County and took side trips to see the harbor area where they did ship building or repairs.</P><P>"As the stebuiwards of USS&nbsp;<EM>Cobia</EM>, a National Historic Landmark Vessel, we take great pride in our mission to preserve this historic submarine. Our upcoming dry docking at Fincantieri’s Shipyard in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin, is a significant step in ensuring her longevity. During this process,&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>will undergo a comprehensive inspection and essential preventative maintenance.</P><P>Preserving&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>is both an honor and a responsibility that requires the support of our community. The construction of these submarines was a monumental effort, involving the hard work of countless individuals—grandfathers, fathers, brothers, mothers, sisters, and grandmothers. Just as it took a community to build these submarines, it will take a community to ensure their preservation for future generations.</P><P>As submarine veteran Wayne Hartlich eloquently stated, “We must do all we can to preserve the history of these diesel boats, the men and women who worked tirelessly during the war years to build them, and, most importantly, to honor the bravery and courage of submariners everywhere.”</P><P>Historic preservation and restoration is a never-ending job, especially for vessels in water. Time and the elements are not kind to ships, and USS&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>is no exception. It takes more than $150,000 every year to keep&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>“ship-shape” and ready for visitors. Part of our obligation to our veterans is to preserve national treasures like USS&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>so that future generations can acknowledge the debt we owe to the fallen.</P><P>We invite you to be part of this important effort. Your donation will help us maintain USS&nbsp;<EM>Cobia&nbsp;</EM>in a condition that honors those who built submarines and served aboard her, ensuring that her legacy endures for years to come".</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="1000017823.jpg" style="width: 470px;"><img src="https://community.aarp.org/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/95751iAE1162B06A421013/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="1000017823.jpg" alt="1000017823.jpg" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Thu, 26 Jun 2025 00:00:32 GMT DaveMcK 2025-06-26T00:00:32Z https://community.aarp.org/t5/Our-Front-Porch/Interesting-Things-We-ve-Seen-On-The-Internet/m-p/2360036#M86980 <P><STRONG><FONT size="4" color="#3366FF">Good Morning To Everyone On The Front&nbsp; Porch On This Cold Thursday Morning&nbsp; December 17th, 2020!</FONT></STRONG></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><FONT size="4" color="#3366FF">As I'm sitting around our apartment on my cable I've seen some interesting things like beautiful creatures posted on the&nbsp; internet!
