What I know about the Seabee memorial comes from two different memories . One the Seabee statue used to be right on Route One facing the traffic. It used to sit on a grassy knoll as an entrance to rest of what used to be Navy buildings. Once the Navy pulled out I think in the early 90’s the Seabee was moved around, restored, housed in a building as storage, and once they found a suitable site, moved to its current spot. The other memory comes from going to the Air shows every year. During the summer usually in July, you have to wait in traffic usually so you could see the Blue Angels. Anyway, you always had to wait in traffic and sit a stare at the strange looking Bee holding a machine gun. As a kid I always thought it was strange looking.
