Many years ago I had an opportunity to visit the Naval Aviation museum. It was excellent! Definitely worth a few hours of your time when you go to visit your sailor.
Also, Lambert's Cafe is a fun restaurant about 30 minutes away, in Foley, AL. We got huge portions of great food for a good price, in a building that resembles the Cracker Barrel chain. It's called"the home of the throwed roll" for good reason...

Did anyone stop by the Florabama bar? Used to be a building but it got blew away a few years back so now it looks like a bunch of pole barns put together
Just returned from P'cola to see my son graduate from A school. Stayed at the Navy Lodge on the main base. The hotel was OK, but the prices were about 30% to 50% less than other hotels in the area, plus you are across the street from the Naval Aviation Museum and the hotel is on the water with a great beach. Some rules apply and you have to go through a specific process, but it is convenient for both the main base and Corry Station. We ate at Maguire's downtown (great Irish pub) and Yamato's near Corry Station. Both excellent. Also, if you get a chance drive over to Mobile to see Battleship Park. USS Alabams is on display and you can take a self-conducted tour. Worth the drive.
