You forgot to mention our WWII Potomac River history here in St. Mary's County. In Piney Point, we not only have the remains of a Navy torpedo testing range, but we have also a sunken German U-boat (submarine) out in the middle of the Potomac which is a National Park Service underwater site which can be visited! The history is displayed at the Piney Point Lighthouse Museum on the Potomac River in southern St. Mary's County.
Thank you!
