The Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park is a museum that is nestled into the shore of Lake Erie right in the downtown core of Buffalo. The museum opened in 1979, when the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency requested that the U.S. Navy provide them with a decommissioned naval vessel to assist in developing the Buffalo Naval and Military Park. When the site originally opened it featured two ships in its collection with the USS Little Rock and the USS The Sullivan’s as part of the display. Since then, the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park has added the USS Croaker to its collection.

As mentioned previously, the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Military Park features three former U.S. Navy Vessels that tourists are able to board and tour. The first being the USS Little Rock which was a Cleveland-class light cruiser that was designed during the second World War and was one of six of her kind that were converted to guided missile cruisers. The second ship in the collection is the USS The Sullivan’s which is a Fletcher-class destroyer, she served in both World War II and the Korean War earning a total of 11 battle stars, prior to her donation to the Buffalo Naval and Military Park. The final vessel in the collection is the USS Croaker which is a Gato-class submarine who served during the Second World War, patrolling East China and Yellow Seas she famously sank the Japanese Nagara cruiser.

Aside from the three main ships, the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Military Park features a wide collection of other vehicles and aircrafts, which include though are not limited to; a Gyrodyne X-Ron 1 Rotorcycle which was a one man helicopter used by the US Marine Corps in the late fifties and an Army M41 Walker Bulldog tank which was used in the Korean War, amongst many other great things.
