Photos taken on 27 August 2022. The doorway is about 15 feet tall and is about 10 feet wide. At the top of the doorway, an anchor is featured to pay homage to the navy as this was a naval base in the 1940s. The plaque says, "Completed in 1942, The North Chapel Building featured leaded glass windows representing the 41 different training schools on site and one window representing the recruit. As the recruits at the Naval Training Center practiced many different religions, different services for all religions were offered. “There was a Priest, a Rabbi, a Baptist Minister and so on that would conduct the services.” Weddings for senior officers were held in the chapel as well.
