Rigged out in full sailor regalia, the members of The 97th brought a little piece of living history to Friedman Place.

The trio sang boisterous sea shanties and told salty stories, much to the delight of our residents.

The Band is in Chicago for the Chicago Maritime Festival, and will perform this coming weekend.
