Did you know that Goleta, California, right outside Santa Barbara, was attacked by a Japanese submarine during WW2? Although it caused little damage, here's why this attack is important in US history!
To check it out yourself, go to Haskell's Beach in Goleta to see the remains of oil derricks hit by a few shells (goo.gl/maps/Yn...) then head to Sandpiper Golf Club to see the attack's historical marker (goo.gl/maps/kP...) and the Barnsdall Rio Grande Service Station to where people on the ground witnessed the attack in 1942 (goo.gl/maps/xA...)
