My son (14 yo) and I went there bc he loves air crafts and ships. He had a blast. You can check out inside some of them on the Midway's deck and take photos. Tour inside the ship. Learn from docents who are veterans and super knowledgeable. It was a lit of fun.

The Docents were knowledgeable and the ship is laid out very well. I recommend taking kids, especially teenagers.
