The naval station Morale, Welfare and Recreation Christmas tree stands silent prior to the 2013 MWR Holiday Parade at U.S. Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Dec. 7, 2013. The parade, which began at the Satellite Communication Systems, Inc. parking lot, wound its way down Sherman Avenue to the Downtown Lyceum and as Santa Claus passed by, the tree lit up the night.
