Video: A Look Inside Naval Station Great Lakes

From the LCTV video library, this look inside Naval Station Great Lakes was Lake County Government TV's most viewed video of 2012 with more than 3,000 views.

 

Located on the western shore of Lake Michigan midway between Chicago and Milwaukee, Naval Station Great Lakes is now 100 years old and has trained nearly 4 million sailors.

The base's mission is training, but few people know that it functions much like a city. The base pulls its own water from Lake Michigan, produces steam for heating, and has its own fire and police departments.
