    Members of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy Glee Club pause during a performance on the buoy deck of Coast Guard Cutter Mackinaw (WLBB 30) at Chicago's Navy Pier during the 23rd annual Chicago's Christmas Ship ceremony Dec. 3, 2022. The event, which takes place during a regular buoy-tending run by Coast Guard Cutter Mackinaw (WLBB 30) on Lake Michigan, brings 1,200 trees from northern Michigan to struggling families in Chicago and commemorates the loss of the original Christmas Ship, the schooner Rouse Simmons, in a Lake Michigan gale in November of 1912.
