Navy Vessels on the Great Lakes

HMCS Margaret Brooke

USS Beloit

USS Nantucket

Though there are no active naval vessels permanently stationed on the Great Lakes, they do occasionally make port calls for special events. In addition to port calls, shipyard Marinette Marine, in Marinette, Wisconsin has been building Freedom Class Littoral Combat Ships for the United States Navy. When these vessels are completed, they must transit the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway to get to the Atlantic Ocean.
