Ever find yourself wishing that history could come alive? Perhaps you enjoy reading about WWII, but part of you wants to travel back in time and see for yourself what certain aspects of combat would have been like? Luckily for you, the WWII Museum is unveiling a brand-new, interactive experience that goes well beyond a typical museum exhibit. PT-305: The Ride of a Lifetime allows you to climb aboard the only fully-restored combat-veteran patrol-torpedo boat in existence, and experience for yourself what life would have been like for those living on board while learning about the naval battles they engaged in. The experience will be offered one day only, at 9am, 11am, and 1pm. Tickets are $350, and $305 for seniors, children, and museum members. Active-duty military in uniform receive 50% off ticket price.
