NORWICH – Members of Boy Scouts of America Troop 63 recently had an opportunity to visit and spend the night at the Buffalo Naval and Military Park, an experience they’ll not soon forget, according to troop leaders.

On November 12, the scouts were able to explore the U.S.S. Little Rock – a WWII guided missile cruiser – including a number of exhibits housed within the ship. In addition, they ate meals on board and bunked down in the same bed racks used by American sailors decades ago, said Troop 63 Scoutmaster Dan Pfeifer.
