Easter Service for Coast Guard. In April of 1943, men who were unable to leave the base to spend Easter with their families were able to invite their wives and sweethearts to attend services held at the Coast Guard patrol base in Tacoma. C. Lyle Rich, acting chaplain, conducted the service with Herbert Ford who sang solos and led hymns. Coast Guard Headquarters was located in the Municipal Dock Building. (T. Times, 4/26/43, p.8)
