The "Pappy" Sears Video- Produced by: Steve Nawojczyk, Braye Cloud and Rusty Gartrell Edited by: Rusty Gartrell

Recently, CAPT Glen "Pappy" Sears, USN (ret) returned to Razorback after a forty year absence. This video captured his first steps and thoughts aboard his old 394 boat. The video was produced by Steve Nawojczyk, Braye Cloud and Rusty Gartrell of the City of North Little Rock.

USS Snook Memorialized on Memorial Day

The Memorial to the USS Snook rests outside the entrance to the North Shore Maritime Center where the Razorback is moored. The City of North Little Rock is proud to be the home of AIMM and Snook Memorial. 

Closed due to Rain

Due to the inclement weather, the submarine has been closed to tours, in order to protect the safety of both our staff and our guests.

New Patches

AIMM has received two new patches in the museum store:

The first patch was used after Razorback came out of the shipyard in 1962 with her “new”, tall “North Atlantic Sail”. This patch has never before been available to general public.


With the addition of this patch, AIMM now has all five patches from Razorback’s career as well as the patch from her career as the Turkish submarine Murat Reis.

The second patch is AIMM’s official patch.

Show the world you support AIMM!

Both patches are $5.00 each and are available from the museum store.

Shorty on the Admiral's Runabout

AIMM is open all week-end and on Memorial Day so stop by for a visit. The annual RIVERFEST event is happening in the park next door. Bring the kids...eat some food that is bad for you and listen to some music.

Dive Dive!

SubVet and AIMM Volunteer Bill Garrison has painted some wonderful submarine scenes using Razorback as his point of reference.
