  3. Arkansas Inland Maritime Museum. Who knew there was a submarine in the Arkansas River, in a land-locked state like Arkansas? Arkansas Inland Maritime Museum is the only place other than Honolulu, Hawaii, to have two vessels that bookend World War II: the tugboat Hoga was in Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack in 1941, and the submarine Razorback was in Tokyo Bay during the formal surrender of Japan.
