Description:

Photograph of two Tri-County Technical Education Center students dressed as Confederate soldiers standing next to the full-scale model of Confederate submarine, H.L. Hunley on a flatbed trailer. They are looking at a photographer posing for a photo. Please contact the Museum's archives with any information on the identities of the students.

This image was taken as they were traveling from the Naval Base to the Hunley Museum in the basement of the Citizens & Southern National Bank building at 50 Broad Street. A gift from C&S to The Charleston Museum, the replica was housed and displayed in the Hunley Museum until 1981 when it was moved to The Charleston Museum's new location at 360 Meeting Street.
