Tucked away on the upper floor of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, Fast Attacks and Boomers, curated by Barton Hacker with Paul Johnston and Margaret Vining, offers a truly special view of the secret world of undersea warfare. Although the handsome color brochure and the long time line on the introductory wall panel present a brief overview of the history of American submarines before 1945, this exhibit dwells on the cold war and the submarines that continued their deterrent patrols even after the fall of the Berlin Wall
