I know of two: Lionfish (SS-298), is at Battleship Cove in Fall River, Mass., and Pintado (SS-387) is at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. Pintado is likely to be closer in configuration to Bang, being only two numbers different (Bang was SS-385). She is in lovely condition, having gone into mothballs right after the war and then directly to preservation in the early seventies when she was stricken. John
