Tour of
the Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military
Park
The Naval &
Military Park is located on Lake Erie and is
one of the few inland Naval parks in the
country. Sitkin people, children,
relatives and friends were able to board
fighting ships. These ships included the
guided-missile cruiser USS Little Rock
(CG-4), the destroyer USS The Sullivans
(DD-537), and the World War II submarine USS
Croaker (SS-246). Displays included
aircraft, scale models of ships and
airplanes. Our Chaplain, Mark Rucker, held
the memorial service aboard the USS Little
Rock (CG-4). George Kaiser played taps.
