USCG Station Glenview

USCG Station Glenview was a United States Coast Guard station located at the former Naval Air Station Glenview in Glenview, Illinois. Established during World War II, the unit’s primary mission was to provide search and rescue services on Lake Michigan, as well as support for maritime law enforcement and environmental protection operations. Throughout its operational years, the station played a vital role in supporting both military and civilian mariners in the greater Chicago area. The station was decommissioned in the mid-1990s following the closure of Naval Air Station Glenview, and its missions were transferred to other Coast Guard units in the region.
