"As a WWII buff, I was enchanted by the history but even if you are not, it a good lesson to learn about life in a crowded space with 3600 men in one space. To see the bunks and kitchen and tight work spaces really makes me thankful for the men who served. There are dental clinics, OR, brig, engine room, mess halls and post office in addition to planes torpedoes and fighting equipment and miles of wire, conduit, low ceilings and watertight doors. There is much to see, so I took a tour but you could probably do an audio guide. The flight deck is full of planes and though you can’t go inside, it is amazing how big they are. It is nicely laid out into four separate short tours and I spent 3 hours just on the Yorktown. I spent a few minutes on the destroyer USS Laffey and would have liked more time. It is amazing to look at the small space in a turret filled with 14 men and 2 five inch guns. It’s 5 miles from town and I took the 41 bus because the ferry doesn’t run again until March. It was the highlight of my trip"
"This gave a fascinating peek into life on an aircraft carrier from the 1940s-1060s. Give yourself a good two hours to see everything. Even then you need extra time to check out the Vietnam Vets tribute."
"For anyone interested in military history, this is the place to visit if you are ever in Charleston. And if you're not a fan of military history, this is a 'must see'. Great museum and a wonderful memorial to all that served in the past and for those serving today. I will plan a trip to Charleston just for this place. You can spend a couple of hours or an entire day exploring this place."
"Loved it! I visited the USS Yorktown on June 28, 2008. It was awesome and our tour guide was actually a WWII veteran who was stationed aboard the ship! He was in his eighties, but still got around the ship quite well! The other ships (including a submarine) were fascinating as well! Finally, the Vietnam section was well worth visiting. This is a great site to visit if you love military history!"
